What trees are commonly adopted by mistletoe ?

Sorry, my bad,,
I meant what other trees (other than apple)

There are various races of mistletoe that tend to stick to groups
of species. The most common one in the UK prefers apple but, as
Kay said, the poplar one is common in France. It is possible that
these are the same race, and that climatic conditions make the
difference. Anyway, it will grow on most deciduous trees, but
is very pernicketty when getting established.

There are two races on the continent that are specific to conifers,
but it almost never seen on conifers here and rarely on evergreens.
And there is a southern European species that grows on oak, but
ours prefers other trees.

However, all of the above is still poorly understood :-)
