Not really. I've tried lots of things, whatever u do don't rub it, just soak it first in liquid soap or powder then bung it in washing machine. Next time snip off the stamens to prevent it happening again, they can ruin everything! It's also poisonous to cats if they brush by it and the cats lick the pollen off their fur.
Does anyone know how to remove lilly pollen from clothes etc thanks?
Lily Pollen stains.
Gently dab a strip of cello tape onto the stain.
The pollen will stick to the tape.
Do not rub.
Or
Pollen Stains. If lily pollen (the golden or reddish “dust” on the anthers of each bloom) gets on your clothing, let it “dry,” then carefully brush it away with a dry, soft brush or facial tissue. Or gently dab pieces of adhesive tape on the fabric until the pollen is gone. Do not brush the pollen away with your hands (oils from your skin will set the stain), and do not use water or a wet cloth (this will spread and set the stain). If some pollen still remains, place the item in direct sunlight for a couple of hours; the stain should disappear. Pollen stains can often be removed from washable fabrics with an enzymatic detergent such as Era.
[Ed: Carefully remove the anthers from the flowers as they open. Pollen can be "stuck" to flowers (such as lilies, arum, calla, etc) by giving the flowers a quick spray with hair spray if the flower is to used for a short use, such as a wedding bouquet.]
Reply:i would try any cleanser that removes grass stains, they are probably close in their chemical makeup--i use oxy clean.
Reply:squirt hairspay on the stain as soon as poss. then wash
