Mistletoe rustling?

Reuters is reporting that there's a mistletoe shortage in the UK, which has led to "cases of mistletoe rustling". It's a perfect business opportunity for some enterprising Texan, as the parasite grows everywhere there. All that would be required would be permission to import it into the UK. But once it was pointed out to the customs official that it would increase the likelihood of getting kissed this Christmas, that should be pretty easy.
