Good conversation topic at a party: The 4-leaf clover is an uncommon variation of the common, three-leaved clover. The fourth leaf, which is the lucky one, is smaller than the three other leaves. The four-leaf is a mutation and is quite rare, occurring once in about 10,000 specimens.
Even better conversation topic at a party: The most ever recorded is twenty-one, a record set in June 2008 by the same man who held the prior record and the current Guinness World Record of eighteen. *Note* How much time does a person spend looking for clovers to achieve a world record of it not only once but twice?
