Last, but certainly not least, the Robinia (False Acacia). There are several seedlings on this – it seems to be a peculiarly susceptible species. But none have developed true leaves – most seem to have been grazed like those on the willow. Several are fighting back – with new shoot primordia apparent from the edges – maybe this is a good thing – there’ll be more shoots per seedling and so a bushier mistletoe plant…
