Summary[edit]
DescriptionMuchelney Mistletoe - geograph.org.uk - 1261816.jpg |
English: Muchelney Mistletoe Viscum album, Herbe de la Croix.
Part of a large clump of Mistletoe found virtually taking over a small hawthorn tree - will the tree eventually die as the parasitic plant draws up the essence of the hawthorn? A sacred plant to the Druids who used to cut bunches from oak trees with a golden knife. It also appeared in the garland of Jack the Green. Placed over doorways as symbols of peace and hospitality it was used as a protection from evil. |
