Mistletoe

In Oregon, mistletoe is only found growing in oak trees. Mostly growing in the uppermost branches where it is hard to get to, I was surprised to see this large bunch relatively close to the ground. If it wasn't for the electric fence between me and this tree, I would have snagged a good portion of this bunch to bring home for holiday decorations.

 

I'm really not sure it gets it's romantic significance as it's not a very attractive plant!
