WARRINGSTON, NORTHERN IRELAND – MARCH 17: The last pot of shamrocks is seen at Cecil Geddis nursey on March 17, 2005 Warringston, Lurgan, Northern Ireland. The term “shamrock” derives from the Irish word, seamrog, which translates to “little clover.” (Photo by Paul McErlane/Getty Images)

Karen Martos found a six-leaf clover in her backyard last week. The 60-year-old woman wondered how much luck a six leaf clover brings. A lot, it turns out. A local newspaper did some research and learned the leaves of a four-leaf clover represent faith, hope, love, and luck while a fifth leaf means money and a six spells long life.
Sounds like Karen Martos can look forward to good times and a lot more birthdays. It’s a dream come true for the woman, who as a child, would collect clovers and make bracelets and necklaces with them.
