The 4 leaf clover has long been associated with Ireland and St. Patrick’s day. It has been said that if you find a 4 leaf clover you will have good luck. The 4 leafs on the clover stand for hope, faith, love and luck. If you find a clover with more than 4 leaves it will bring you bad luck. To know if you really have a 4 leak clover - the 4th leave is most of the time smaller than the rest of the leaves.
