2016-04-11 five-leaf clover

My aunt S. found a five-leaf clover yesterday and gifted it to me, for the bit of extra luck she thinks I need, to find a new job. (No luck so far, only refusals to my applications)

Interesting for me: the four-leaf clover is a rare variation of the common three-leaved clover (Trifolium repens). The five-leaf clover is like the four-leaf clover a mutation that does appear occasionally, but less common than the four-leaf clover.

Each leaf is believed to represent something: the first is for hope, the second is for faith, the third is for love, and the fourth is for luck. The superstition for the 5-leaf clover is extra good luck and attracting money. I do not say, that I do would not care for some extra money. But the other four mean definitely much more to me. And not to forget, a five-leaf clover makes a good photo opportunity!
Gorgeous! And lovely description. I hope it brings a little of all five.
