They're selling some at Papers, in Nob Hill. Or at least, they were a couple of weeks ago.

I know we picked some up at Sunflower Market a couple years ago, but I haven't looked to see if it's being stocked this year.

Take a walk along the bosque trails.  Mistletoe can be seen in clumps growing on the cottonwoods.  If you look hard enough, you'll  find some on low-lying branches.

There's mistletoe and there's mistletoe. As I understand it, the locally-occurring variety - which can also frequently be encountered in junipers in the foothills and throughout New Mexico - is a different plant than the "classic" broadleaf mistletoe plant, which is what that story discusses. The local stuff is quite common if you're looking in the right environments...
