   @mike@macgirvin.com We once had a front lawn that had a clover plant whos every single clover had four leaves. Then one fine day the owner of the property poured a concrete slab over it.

      @tuttle @mike There are no four leave clover plants, it must have been an Oxalis, there are some four leaved species in that genus (Oxalis tetraphylla).
      There are, sometimes, individual four-eaf clovers.

         @aurochs ohh. you've broken my illusion. I think I'll just ignore what you've just said and keep on thinking we had something special.

         @auroch @tuttle @mike  Lo que dice puede ser cierto.
         Por lo general los de cuatro son raros, pero se pueden seleccionar para producir semillas que den siempe cuatrifolios. Seguro que venden semillas asi en algun lado.
         Es como seleccionar un grupo de rubios o pelirrojos

            @pipistrellum @tuttle @mike I have found many four leaf clovers, but that is due to deformed individual clovers, not mutant plants that produce only four leaf clovers. Of course you can have plants that are genetically prone to those deformities.
