Why is Tenbury Wells the capital of mistletoe?
Available for over a year
Discover how the Worcestershire town has become synonymous with the festive plant, and how a tradition was born to kiss underneath the mistletoe. Tammy Gooding hears from Diane Dowell from Tenbury Mistletoe Festival, who shows her around the glorious exhibitions in Tenbury's town centre, how to spot the plant growing and why there's a difference between male and female plants. Diane says the town is the world's capital of mistletoe, and how the plant is one of the few examples in nature of embryos growing in the light.
