They produce enormous quantities of light, dry pollen grains that are carried on Wellington’s boisterous spring winds.
Only a small amount of this pollen hits the spot on plants. The majority goes to waste and this is what can be seen forming clumps and foamy slime around water or the fine yellow dust you might be seeing on your clean car or laundry. It can be alarming but it’s perfectly normal.
People mistakenly think pollen deposits are pollution and report them to Greater Wellington’s Pollution Hotline, which shows people care about their environment and have a sharp eye for pollution. Greater Wellington wants to hear from people when they think there might be a pollution problem, even when that turns out not to be the case.
If people suspect pollution they should call Greater Wellington Regional Council's Hotline on 0800 496 734. It's a confidential 24-hour service. Contact details will be requested so that staff can gather more information if needed.

Does anyone know why a siren keeps going off on Cuba St? It's been blaring for a couple seconds then cutting out and has been doing this intermittently for the past hour or so.

By doing a few clever tasks now your garden will be sorted through summer.
1. Do a quick weed.
2. Plant evergreen shrubs to fill gaps.
3. Put on mulch 10cm thick (reducing light to the soil). Option: lay down newspaper under the mulch (superettes often have old newspapers to give away).

Hi, our Kenwood mixer gave up the ghost last week so we've bought a new one. Rather than seeing the old stuff going to landfill I was wondering if anyone wanted the spare bits to add to the kitchen? There is the dough hook, K beater, whisk, grinder & mixing bowl. There is also the mixer … View moreHi, our Kenwood mixer gave up the ghost last week so we've bought a new one. Rather than seeing the old stuff going to landfill I was wondering if anyone wanted the spare bits to add to the kitchen? There is the dough hook, K beater, whisk, grinder & mixing bowl. There is also the mixer itself. It does not work so well but if there is anyone with a child who likes taking things to bits to see how they work, it might make a nice distraction? Ohh & there's also an expandable cake stand which works but is not in the best of condition:)
