    • More and more, we see the four leaf clover replacing the Shamrock during St. Patrick's Day.
    T - shirts, sewing fabrics, decorations even AOh banners have 4 leaf clover instead of the Shamrock which is the symbol of the Holy Trinity as taught by St Patrick.

    That is very interesting! But, not really surprising considering the times. I think some of them are trying to present the "luck" of the Irish, which is signified by four leaves (which may have its root in Protestantism).
