Pollen Count & Forecast for Indore

Indore’s spring allergy season (February-April) is dominated by Congress Grass and Mesquite; Congress Grass (Parthenium) prolific along the Khan River and urban lots; Mesquite (Prosopis juliflora) widespread across the Ralamandal Wildlife Sanctuary and city outskirts. Grasses (Poaceae) contribute significantly from Meghdoot Garden and Regional Park. Summer (April-June) sees high Castor (Ricinus communis) pollen levels, originating from the Saraswati River banks.

High particulate matter and dust from traffic and industrial sites can trap allergens, leading to localised high concentrations. Monsoon months (July-September) see elevated Mould (Alternaria, Aspergillus) spore counts, from Sirpur Lake and damp residential environments.
