Mistletoe
In Britain most mistletoe is found in the south and west midlands, with particularly good populations in Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Gwent and Somerset.
Many assume this to be somehow linked to apple orchards (apple is a favourite mistletoe host, and orchards a favourite habitat). However, there are many apple orchard areas elsewhere in Britain that don’t have mistletoe: local climate is also a key factor.
