neutral  Cetacea: If this were indeed a botanical question, I would agree with you. But in this context, "Nachblüte" doesn't refer to postfloration, but rather to "late bloomers" creating the post peak in pollen load Yael has posted below.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Cetacea: In this context, I'd go with post peak as well, since here, Nachblüte does not refer to postfloration, but to "late bloomers".

agree  David Moore (X): Yes, but "in bloom" is incorrect - it should be "main blo(ss)om" or somehting similar
