A Four-Leaf Clover
This plant is universally renowned as bringing good luck. It originates from the plant white-clover, a perennial flower having white petals. The heads of the flowers are ball-shaped. Most clovers have three leaves, but one in 10,000 develops four leaves, with one of the leaves being smaller than the rest. The four-leafed clover is considered God’s representation of his grace and if one finds it, it is believed that it will bring him good fortune and luck. The belief that the four-leaf clover brings good luck is also because it is so rare, that when you find one you feel truly lucky already. A four-leafed clover can be preserved dried and it can also be put inside a lucky charm.
