Tom Ogren1.Fruitless mulberry trees: roots break lawnmowers and these trees really pump out the allergenic pollen. Shade is also too deep for lawns.2.Sweetgum trees: big roots that poke out of the lawn.3.Pine trees: root problems and pollen too.4.Sycamore trees: usually grow way too large for most yards and they produce fuzz that makes people itch.5.Cedar trees: a female cedar is a nice, pollen-free tree, but grows way too large for most houses and yards.6. Magnolia trees: these have shallow roots and if you ever have to rototill your yard, if you have a magnolia tree in the lawn, youll be sorry. Shade is too dense too for most lawns.7.Lombardy poplars: these common trees grow fast and die young, leaving you with a huge mess. They also are male and produce lots of pollen.8.Olive trees: unless it is a Swan Hill or some other non-flowering olive, this one will cause all kinds of allergies. The olives are a big mess too.9.Walnut trees: nothing grows well under them and they produce lots of pollen and also smelly walnut fruit husks that draw flies.10. Brazilian Pepper trees: roots are a problem for mowing, the shade is too deep for lawns, and they cause skin rashes and other allergies.11. Seedless or fruitless Chinese Pistache trees: big producers of the most allergenic pollen. Slow to leaf out in spring.12.
