Five Leaf Clover

[MartinH]

So yesterday, while playing in the yard with my little boy, I found this five-leaf clover and the promptly a four-leaf right after. I haven't found one of these since childhood, and remember the weirdest one I ever found was a six-leaf. Now, four-leaf clovers are routine for me. I often find four or five a month, sometimes more. Do I have some sort of psychological disorder that I'm always finding this stuff? But I wanted to post a pic of the the fiver, since I think it's much more rare.

Happy Sunday!

Here is a second picture, right after I found it yesterday. Of course, I stink at taking close-up pics.

You got to much time on your hands.

I always look, I never find them. People curious in joining my search find them around me.

Do a "book press" like one would do with a flower to dry it out (the magic of the Internets can show you how) and keep it in one of those baseball card protectors. I wonder if it's a logarithmic thing with clover leaves beyond three regarding luck, or if it shifts the balance of the universe somehow...

I'm with Kyle here. Even though I always take a moment to look around, I've never seen anything but 3 leafers.

Dry it out and smoke it. You may be on to something.

I've never seen a five-leafed clover, I didn't even know they existed. Once bought a couple of clover bulbs that only grew four-leafed clovers (in the flower market in Amsterdam). But I'm with jlong and hope you report back on the experiment.

Ha! I wish I had too much time on my hands. I'm some sort of idiot-savant, I tell ya. I often will just look down while walking and find one. It's a really weird (bizarre) thing.

Happy Monday to you gents!

It's cool, I get accused of being a smart-incompetent all the time. It's the burden of being a good bullsh*tter and not entering politics. Heheheheh

Top of the Monday to ya. 8)

Are you sure you're not walking in one of the EPA's "Superfund" toxic waste dumps? Might explain all the mutated clover. :shock:

Ha! You never know. If I start growing an extra head, or a mouth on the side of my face to smoke a second pipe out of, I'll let you know. :cheers:

I figured you'd get accused of being a "smart-A**" not a "smart-incompetent"! LOL :lol!: :cheers:
