Five-Leaf Clover
Botanical Specimen

Five-Leaf Clover

This item is a five-leaf clover, a rare botanical anomaly of the white clover plant (Trifolium repens). The specimen exhibits five distinct, heart-shaped leaflets radiating from a central stem. The leaves are a vibrant medium to dark green color, typical of healthy clover foliage, with visible vein patterns. The individual leaflets appear to be intact, though one leaflet on the left side of the image displays a small, irregular hole or tear, suggesting minor damage from environmental factors such as insect activity or physical abrasion. There are also some very small, irregular white or lighter green spots on some of the leaves, possibly indicative of very minor desiccation or surface imperfections. The stem is slender, a lighter green than the leaves, and appears supple, suggesting a relatively fresh specimen rather than a dried or pressed one. There are no discernible maker's marks, signatures, or stamps as this is a natural botanical item. Its estimated age is very recent, likely harvested within a few days to a week based on its apparent freshness. The rarity of five-leaf clovers, being even more uncommon than the traditional four-leaf variety, makes this a unique find. Its quality is good for a natural specimen, with only minor aesthetic imperfections that do not significantly detract from its characteristic appearance.
