How can I grow a garden of four leaf clovers?

Question

I bought the cheap little four leaf clover grower on Ebay, but those never worked. I want a six sq ft area of four leaf clovers in my back yard. Are there 4 leaf clover seeds? When is the best time to plant them? Thanks

Answer 1

There are no seeds for them. Four leaves are recessive. It is almost impossible to even have two in one place much less a whole garden of them. It's a matter of Mendelian genetics.

Answer 2

I read somewhere years ago that there are only certain clover plants that have 4 leaves. Since clover basically in a running plant, I guess if you find a 4-leaf clover and carefully trace it back to the main plant, you could replant it and nurture it and hope it will multiply. And if you can find enough of these 4-leaf plants, you could eventually have your 6 sq. ft. area of lucky clovers. I don't know if this would actually work, but it may be worth a try if all else fails. Good luck.
