Is there a "birth control pill" for trees that will keep a tree from producing troublesome pollen and seeds?

I'm thinking of something like an anti-fertilizer that won't kill the tree, just render it unproductive.

No
Reply:There is nothing like this available for trees.
Reply:If there were such a thing it would totally render the tree useless. A tree goes through a cycle: flowering, leafing, fruiting, dormancy, all for a purpose. Stop its purpose and stop the tree. Maybe you need to look into trees that are low litter, low pollen, etc. or get rid of the trees and put down rock mulch instead.
Reply:yes. just dont plant M and F plants next to eachother. i no it might seem crazy but how do u think smaller an larger plants grow? haha. u can cut out the pollen or sumtin

Reply:Yes. There is a commercial product called "Florel". It has to be sprayed on the tree when it's in bloom. It's a growth regulator that prevents pollination from occurring.





If the tree is large, though - you may have to have a tree service spray to be able to reach all the flowers.





It's frequently use on Sweetgum trees to prevent the pollination and subsequent production of those largish- prickly brown seedpods. Also some fruit tree owners will use it when they don't want to deal with harvesting fruit, or fruit-drop clean up.
