What'd they, do, shake the tree before taking that photo? I know they give off massive amounts of pollen (my family live in central Texas and get "cedar fever" annually) but I've never seen a literal cloud emanating off of one.

Nonetheless, thanks for the thread. When I have space for a garden, I'll likely plant at least one pecan tree and one pomegranate tree
