That was how I felt last year.  The St. Louis Convention came just at peak bloom here.  If I hadn't already paid my money I'd have stayed home.  Also, my sister was meeting me at the convention. 

<<And I've learned something new this week....  found out just how much pollen I can tolerate before breaking out with hives...ooops>>
 
Uh, Oh.  Hives!  There were times this spring that I had to leave the garden for awhile due to the scent and possibly pollen.  At least I didn't lose my voice this year which has happened three seasons since I started with the irises on such a large scale. 
 
One seedling section of the garden was heavier in scent and I could only stay there for short periods of time to hunt for pollen.
