Removing male cedars won’t stop cedar allergies
Body
Dear Neil: I really enjoy Neil Sperry’s column. He addressed whether someone would want to cut down a redcedar tree because of allergies to the pollen. Remember that there are both male and female trees in the juniper genus. If the redcedar has pretty little blueberries, it’s a female tree and will not produce pollen. It could be left without fear of creating allergies.
