Mistletoe
From: (Iris Cohen)
European mistletoe is not a parasite It is a hemiparasite. Big difference Please clarify. I understand Phoradendron is not considered a full parasite because it has leaves with chlorophyll. Somebody in another newsgroup called it a water parasite. There is another genus of mistletoe which I guess you would call a full parasite because it sends roots into the wood & weakens the tree. Is this what you meant? Arceuthobium isn't always green, and can kill trees.
