Is that on an apple tree Steve? Never tried to grow mistletoe, it's quite expensive in the shops though isn't it so in about 10 years time you might have enough to make a bit of money Steve! ;D

You never know ;D it is apple, in fact 2 apple trees, I have tried it on various but it only took on the apples, this was also the 3rd attempt. There are areas of the country where it grows very easily Derbyshire isn't one ;D so It will be interesting to see how it progresses

Mine was put on the Rowan. I have grown it on Rowan at my last place and it came off the old Bramley. I also put it on the John Downie crab apple. My apple trees are too old and young vibrant wood is best.

My white one is in flower, and the one like Lou's second one has buds on it. I must take a photo of one of my Cymbidiums which has two flower spikes and is looking beautiful!

I wish the plant was big enough to send you a piece, Lou, but it's not. It doesn't seem to have grown at all in the two years since I bought it. I did take photos of my Cymbidium, but I can't find the lead to upload the photos atm!
