We look at why mistletoe is considered a parasite outside the holiday season.

In 2019, WFSU discovered a special species of mistletoe in the trees outside our building. Its Latin name is phoradendron leucarpum, or oak mistletoe (also known as American mistletoe). WFSU's Rob Diaz de Villegas explores why it is considered a parasite.
