This looks very like\u00a0Loranthus europaeus<\/i>\u00a0but I am not aware if that grows in California. The nearest American genus is\u00a0Phoradendron<\/i>, I think. Unless you think your photo is of an introduced plant I would therefore suggest\u00a0Phoradendron serotinum<\/i>\u00a0ssp.\u00a0macrophyllum<\/i>\u00a0(Big Leaf Mistletoe<\/strong>) which is widespread in California as the most likely taxon.\u00a0 It is on the Calflora website –\u00a0https:\/\/www.calflora.org\/app\/taxon?crn=11016<\/a><\/p>\n
