Is your name a four-leaf clover?
Four-leaf clovers are rare - in a real field you might search for a long time before you find one. The Lucky Clover Patch brings that little thrill to St Patrick's Day. Type your name and plant your clover. Most names grow a proper three-leaf shamrock. About one name in seven grows a four-leaf clover that glows gold. Then pass the patch on and watch the group find out who the lucky ones are.
How it works
- Plant your clover. Your name decides how many leaves it grows. The same name always grows the same clover, so there is no rerolling your luck.
- Pass it on. Send the patch to friends, your team or the family chat. Everyone sees the clovers planted so far.
- Count the lucky ones. Up to twelve people can plant. Add a line of good luck if you like - "may your coffee be strong" counts.
Good for
- Office group chats on 17 March, as a quick bit of fun before the day starts.
- Irish families abroad in the US, Canada, the UK and Australia keeping in touch on the day.
- Classrooms - every pupil plants a clover and the class finds its lucky few.
Shamrock or four-leaf clover?
The shamrock, with three leaves, is the symbol of Ireland and of St Patrick's Day. The four-leaf clover is the old symbol of luck. The patch has both: shamrocks for everyone, and four leaves for the lucky.
