Those with pollen allergies may develop hives as a reaction to some plants and foods. The Mayo Clinic describes this as cross-reactivity, in which a fruit or vegetable may trigger a flare up, usually felt as a tingle or itch in the mouth. Even bananas and apples can cause a reaction.
But this relatively big, showy pollen you see from trees and flowers really isnt the culprit. Its the microscopic pollen you dont see that causes allergies. This can be from deciduous trees in the spring such as oak, elm, birch, maple, ash, alder, some pines, box elder, and willow. The hardwoods especially are the culprits.
