Now,here is some facts about Four Leaf Clover taken from various sources on the net so hope you enjoy reading about it.Here goes..

The four-leaf clover is a uncommon variation of the common three-leaf clover. Traditionally it is a common activity for children to look for these and it is considered good luck to find one.

People who search for four-leafed clovers note that some patches of ground appear more likely to contain four-leafed examples and that this may be partly due to differing growing conditions such as pollution, soil composition, and other environmental factors. Clovers may have even more than four leaves. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the highest number of leaves found on a clover has been eighteen. It has been estimated that there are approximately 10000 three-leaf clovers for every four-leaf clover.

According to legend, each leaf of the clover represents something. The first leaf is for hope, the second leaf is for faith, the third leaf is for love, and the fourth leaf, naturally, is for luck
In Irish tradition the Shamrock or Three-leaf Clover represents the Holy Trinity: one leaf for the Father, one for the Son and one for the Holy Spirit. When a Shamrock is found with the fourth leaf, it represents God's Grace.
According to legend, Eve carried a four leaf clover from the Garden of Eden.The mystique of the four leaf clover continues today, since finding a real four leaf clover is still a rare occurrence and omen of good luck.
