Chinese evergreen elm
Ulmus parvifolia
Very low today, mostly tree pollen.
Last updated August 15, 2026
Pollen levels around Hollywood are quiet today, with both tree and weed pollen sitting at the low end of the scale. Sensitive individuals are unlikely to notice much in the way of symptoms, and for most people this should be an easy day to spend outdoors without pollen being a concern. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at a low level through the next several days, so no significant change is anticipated there. Tree pollen from local species such as Callistemon, Ficus, Arecastrum, elm, and Washingtonia palms is also starting from a low point this week. This tracks with the season—summer in Southern California tends to be a calmer stretch overall, well past the spring tree pollen surge and ahead of the late-summer and fall uptick often associated with weeds like ragweed.
