Because, "mistletoe" is not so familiar yet (I think) in Japan. so it makes me surprised that the word of mistletoe was chosen as a season word.
Of course I know the song, but does the Christmas tree means mistletoe?
Anyway for me mistletoe is not familiar.
Thanks to this article, I learnt about mistletoe.
I bought some fresh branches of mistletoe, it will be delivered in a week.
If you have some your story about mistletoe, I'd liked you to share them to me.

Hi Mieko! Christmas Tree and Mistletoe are quite different. Mistletoe is sometimes used as a decoration at Christmas. One tradition is that if you are under the mistletoe someone can kiss you, which is why it is often used in love songs. Usually at a party it would be hanging from the ceiling so that people can stand underneath it!
I never really saw mistletoe when I was growing up. I think my part of Canada is too cold for it.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your comments, and sorry for being late for replying.
Yes, I understand, chirismtmss tree is a fir tree, isn't time I learn, it is a tradition that you can or have to kiss under a mistletoe tree. Luckily, This winter I got a fresh sprigs by Meruksri ( do you know it). Everybody who comes to my house enjoys seeing it, however no one still kiss to anyone.
