Today I bring you mistletoe...soon will find some holly. This oak is the only one that I saw with mistletoe growing in it...on the earthen dam that forms Lake Tomahawk.
All the green you see on the oak tree is mistletoe. Since this is at a park, it's unlikely the Black Mountain Parks Department will harvest it. But perhaps some enterprising persons will.

I learn something new every time I visit your blog! Very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI used to go out with my father many years ago. He would shoot the mistletoe out of the tree. I did it once myself and learned not to hold the shotgun against my shoulder. The kick sent me to the ground.
ReplyDeleteI really never knew where mistletoe did grow. You live in a beautiful area.
ReplyDeleteHolly and ivy I have in plenty but no mistletoe (that I know of.)
