I think I’ve peaked. How will I ever top this

I found these at work along the edge of an alfalfa field. I only had a small window of time, but I found two 4 leaf clovers. Then I found a 5 1/2 leaf and I was shocked. THEN. Then I found one that I swore was two stuck together. I’ve had a 4 leaf, I’ve had a 5 leaf, but I skipped right over finding a 6 leaf and went straight to a *7* leaf clover. Not 10 seconds later I found the SECOND 7 leaf clover.

Is there a possibility white clover crossbred with Alfalfa here?😂

I’ve really been enjoying the hunt it’s very meditative. Found one at a visit to a local farm this morning too. I’m used to finding them in our neighborhood so I get very excited to find them outside of that usual radius!

I was directed here from r/plants because my boyfriend refuses to believe this counts as a 5 leaf clover. So I just want to know if you think counts even if they’re not from the same “bud site”?

This is a serious argument and I need expert opinions, brutal honesty.

(Included patch it came from, there were a couple others too)

I found them in a mutant patch of clovers along the sidewalk. I think the 8-leaf clover is actually fasciated, since the stem is thicker than a normal 4-leaf clover. Also, the "4 + 1/2-leaf" clover is a 4-leaf clover, but one of the leaves bifurcated at the end so it counts as + 1/2 IMO. The last photo is today's find.

My sister took these gorgeous pics of my find from earlier... It's like a regular 4-leaf clover, but then with an extra conjoined twin leaf in the center. Not sure if it counts as 5 or 6 leaves, but I love it!

Today's find

A 5-leaf, a 4½-leaf (since the largest leaf is bifurcated halfway through its length), and two 4-leaf clovers. I don't know why, but 4 (and more)-leaf clover just pop out to me for some reason.

My mom showed me a patch and I found these three big ones

I'll definitely be looking there from now on

Found my first four (?) leaf clover

One of the leaves is conjoined but it looked like it would've formed 4 leaves. If anything, I was having a bad day and that felt like a bit of luck was on my side. It made me feel better so even if it's not a "real" 4 leaf clover, it still has a bit of magic in my heart

I’m going in for my very last attempt of ivf today. Hopefully this clover will help my baby survive 🩷 My dog is a fantastic clover finder
