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

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.

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