Oxford Botanic Garden: mistletoe
Mistletoe is actually a parasite on other plants, but this being a botanic garden it still gets its own plant label.
Oxford Botanic Garden

The botanic garden has its origins as far back as 1621 but acquired its present name in 1840 and its present extent of 2 hectares in 1945. It is one of the constituent parts of Oxford University; an entry fee is charged to most adult visitors but current students are exempt and Oxford alumni get a discount.
