| Viscum album, known as mistletoe, hangs as balls in trees and is often used in flower arrangements around Christmas. Hanging above a doorway is a sign that anyone standing beneath it may be kissed without punishment.Viscum album is a semi-parasitic plant found primarily on poplars, lime trees, and fruit trees, especially apple trees. It also grows on oaks, maples, and hawthorns in calcareous soils. Its roots attach themselves to the host tree.They are found primarily in Southern Europe, up to Dutch Limburg, and are often seen in the Belgian Voer region.They grow very slowly and can live for a very long time, up to 70 years. |
