Phoenix, AZ Mulberry Pollen

Mulberry pollen in Phoenix usually peaks around March, reaching High at its worst. Phoenix has an allergy season that runs most of the year, driven by desert trees. Juniper and cypress start in winter, olive and mulberry peak in spring, and mesquite carries into early summer. These trees are so allergenic that the city restricts planting some of them.

Male mulberry trees release heavy, highly allergenic pollen in early spring. Phoenix prohibits planting them, though older trees remain around the city.

Managing mulberry season in Phoenix

If mulberry is your trigger, start a daily antihistamine like cetirizine (Zyrtec) or loratadine (Claritin) a week or two before the March peak, rather than waiting for symptoms. Keep windows closed on high-count mornings, shower and change clothes after time outside, and run the AC on recirculate in the car.

When symptoms don't ease with over-the-counter medicine, an allergist in Arizona can test whether mulberry is really what you react to and talk through longer-term options like allergy shots.
