We kept the sprig of Christmas Mistletoe in the garden for several months. The seeds went black and my wife then stuck some onto our Apple trees. There was much excitement when some of the seeds started to germinate.
The green hypocotyl is forming a disc, which means the bark is suitable. This holdfast will penetrate and connect with the xylem of the Apple tree. It will take several years before leaves start to grow.
