Plant Culture of Alfalfa Grass
Four-leaf clover is a rare variant of plants of the genus Clover (including the genus Clover and Alfalfa Grass), which also has more than five leaves, up to eighteen leaves. The legend of the clover is most prevalent in Britain and Ireland, and has become a folk tradition in Western countries. Children take pleasure in searching for four-leaf clovers in the meadows, and on St. Bede's Day, celebrated in New York City every March, people parade around in green clothing and four-leafed clover ornaments, the mascot of the season.
As for Japan, many stores use four-leaf clovers as store names or as backgrounds for comic books. Even Taiwan's famous writer Qiong Yao once came out with a novel of "Lucky Grass". This shows that the story about lucky grass has been widely spread, and has a long historical background.
