Posted November 23, 2013 wow. i use to think that four leaf clovers were just made up. iv never found one in my life, and in my yard there are several patches of clovers. also, i do have bad luck. It's okay, I've never found one either. I was at a craft fair the other week with some acquaintances, and we were looking at pressed 4-leaf clovers. One guy said "How did they find this many? I've never gotten one!" But maybe it just has to do with the fact that I don't have the patience to hunt for them. :3 Share this post Link to post

Posted March 18, 2014 I found a 4 leaf clover once! There was a quiet competition among my 5th grade class to find one in the huge clover patches outside our classroom. I was the only one to find one, and I pressed it with wax paper between the pages of a textbook, but at the end of the year I returned the textbook and forgot to take out my clover Some kid next year opened up that book and found that clover and was probably pleasantly surprised though.

Posted March 18, 2014 A few years ago I found a five leaf clover. That was a pleasant surprise! Share this post Link to post
Posted March 18, 2014 I found a five leaf clover once. Then I tried to press it and I guess it fell from the pages or something... But boy, that was amazing! Also, I found about two four-leafed clovers in the past. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 18, 2014 I think the four leaf clovers must be a variety, because on my grandpas farm they have four leaf clovers growing everywhere, they are definitely a different species to the regular clovers. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 18, 2014 Are you sure it's not some sort of clover look-alike? True four-leafers should come from Trifolium repens (white clover) or Trifolium pratense (red clover) Share this post Link to post
Posted March 18, 2014 Once I was hanging outside with my family and they were all trying to find 4-leaf clovers. I thought it was kind of stupid, so I just watched them from the porch. They were all like,"Hey, come try to find one!" I relunctantly went over to the patch, bent down, and I plucked a random clover from the gound. Want to guess what kind it was? A four-leaf clover. :3 Share this post Link to post
Posted March 18, 2014 Did you know that most (undamaged, at least) plants have a number of leaves/petals that is in the Fibonacci sequence? It's true! Plants with spiral patterns like pine cones and pineapples also tend to have a Fibonacci number of swirls, whether you count clockwise or counterclockwise. There are some plants similar to the white clover, however, that have three or four leaves regularly and not as a mutation. But considering the fact that mutations are not actually beneficial for clovers in any way and may lead to their lives being ended early by a lucky person, all plants are probably equally lucky. The more you knoooooooooooowww *floats away on a 200-leaf balloon clover* Share this post Link to post
Posted March 19, 2014 Wow, this brings back memories! When I was in year one, I think, I spent hours on end searching for for leaf clovers! The only one I ever found turned out to have a split leaf. (Well, I should know, seeing as I was the one who broke the leaf, as I was so desperate to have good luck! ) Share this post Link to post
Posted March 21, 2014 I once checked out a library book and found a four-leaf clover pressed between the pages. I left it there for the next person to find as well. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 21, 2014 The highest number of leafs ever found on a clover was 6. And then 4-leaf clovers many times in the past. I don't have photos because here, where I live, 4-leaf clovers are not that big. We don't make a wish upon them, or keep them for anything. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 25, 2014 I used to hunt for 4 leaf clovers on a hot summer days and in the spring at boarding school when I should have been studying. Finding them was never my strong point. I'd look and look and usually not spot one but then sometimes someone would come over and point out one in the same patch I'd been hunting. Go figure! Share this post Link to post
Posted March 25, 2014 I've never found a clover with more than 3 leaves, sadly. But I'll find one eventually! Share this post Link to post
Posted April 17, 2014 My sister and I have found four, five and at least one six leaf clovers in the clover patch outside our grandparents' house. I still have some of the fours and maybe a five leaf stored away in plastic wrap somewhere in my room, I think... Wonder if it's still around or crumbled away to nothing... Anyways, my sister and I did find them frequently, but they were always something special to us. Maybe not in the form of wish-granting, but magical all the same. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) can you take a picture of on e of the 4 leafers? Whoops this is like half a year late but sure!
