Mistletoe

At the beginning of the year in 2008 I liberally smeared mistletoe berries all over the bark and branches of several apple trees. I don't know how long it will take before I find out if any of the seeds have taken. There was no sign of anything throughout last year. Fingers crossed for this.

You may ponder on what brought this thought to mind today. I was flitting from one blog to another and came across this with the beautiful photo of a rose. And in an earlier post with the snow/ice scenes were some of mistletoe . . .

Oh my! I am honoured! If you really want the mistletoe, I hope it takes. It's a very interesting plant. Just when I thought we would have it forever, the next season, hardly any mistletoe could be found, same tree. Weird, I thought.

Are you going to do "before and after" photos?
