Does anyone need any mistletoe? From a berry I established on an apple tree about ten years ago

Gosh that's grown well. There are loads of trees, (not apples trees though), along our avenue with hugh amounts of misletoe this year.

I try to get them to take every year but never successfully.

I am so envious ;o)

Sbg - I put a dozen berries on but only one 'took'. When did you try? Mistletoe berries aren't ripe at Christmas, they're not ready until March. I found this site useful:

I usually do it late Feb early March as I knew they wouldn't be ripe. I try to squidge 3/4 berries into the same spot. One day I hope I will be successful.

I will have a look at the link thank you.
