Five-leafed clover

Look what I found! I used to have a lucky eye when searching for four-leafed shamrocks. But I have never ever before seen one with five. Here it is:

Before I brutally ripped it from the ground it had one leaf hidden behind an other:

    Well, if that’s your opinion Halla, I probably can’t change it. But give it a try and search on google for five leafed clover and discover that they do exist. How rare they are, I do not know. This is the only one I have seen – and I have been relatively good at finding four leafed clovers for many years…

    Did you know that 5-leafed clovers actually bring bad luck if you pick them… In order to get break the ban you have to find a 6-leafed clover (at least according to the state of the art dictonary on clover – Anders And).

    Happy hunt for the 6 leafer.

      Thanks you for your comment Per. You found an old post.
      Now it is so that I am not superstitious – it causes accidents!
      I’ll have to study The Anders And Dictionary in details.
