GUI AND GIROFLÉE

We know where to come next Christmas for a good supply of Gui (Mistletoe - Viscum album), the Bourgogne Canal it's almost a pest. Some trees seem to be more mistletoe than tree.

Poplar trees covered in Gui along the banks of the canal.

The other plant in abundance is Giroflée (Wallflower - Erysimum sp.) in its native state before plant breeding, it's superb. You wonder why we did not leave it in its natural form.

Natural uncultivated Giroflée in preferred habitat, a wall! Clue's in the name.
