Abstract

Mistletoe (Viscum album) is an evergreen epiphitic plant parasite of several species of trees, such as poplars, oak, lindens, elms and pines, from which it draws water and nutrients. It is able to perform photosynthesis (hence the green colour), but needs other plants’ contribution for its growth.
