When sowing seeds last March unfortunately I didn't notice that an oak branch used was already dying Therefore I've tried to transplant the seedlings before they attach to the host cambium, this time onto healthy mountain ash & horse chestnut.Time will tell whether they 'take'.
Update: For the first time a seedling has not dried off over summer. I wonder if it will survive winter, and if a leaf will appear? Has anyone else had a succession after the seedling stage? (Attachment Link)
Discovered these young plants of mistletoe in a young poplar. I guess they must be in their third year on the tree. Quite interesting is how the poplar has an inflated branch where the mistletoe germinated, like the tree is making some huge knot round the intruders.
