Green


During the last few years, I noticed what looked like mistletoe in the tree in our front yard. Today I saw a patch of it again and thought it would be the perfect "green" picture for this challenge. When I got closer to it, though, it really looked like it was growing right out of the tree. I don't know what I thought mistletoe was, but I thought it would be connected in a way that would look more foreign to the tree than this did. So, I Googled it to be sure it was, in fact, mistletoe. It is. I found out mistletoe is a parasitic plant that grows attached to and within the branches of trees and shrubs. Learning things all the time.
