R.L.1910, § 2952.

Mistletoe, phoradendron seotinum, is the oldest of Oklahoma's symbols, adopted first in 1893, 14 years before statehood. Its greenery in the harsh winter months symbolizes the perseverence of early settlers. The colors of the foliage of mistletoe and its berries, green and white, are the state colors of Oklahoma.
