The flowers are white or pinkish, most of which are attractive shrubs, which are mostly red (fruits are poisonous), these fruits will last on the plant for a long time. The twigs are suitable for flower arrangements in the autumn and winter months. In England, this plant is a symbol of Christmas and is used similarly to mistletoe in our country. In the winter months you can also find it in our florist or farmer's market.
