Can someone please explain me why are these "leaves" so expensive? I mean, what are the purpose of them? Are they rare or something? Thanks
Free bump to you!
They are a rare mutation in the leave. This happens to like 1 in 5000 I think

I did a science report on 4 leaf clovers... For all who are interested:
"It has been estimated that there are approximately 10,000 three-leaf clovers for every four-leaf clover;[4] however, this probability has not deterred collectors who have reached records as high as 160,000 four-leaf clovers.[5] It is debated whether the fourth leaflet is caused genetically or environmentally. Its relative rarity suggests a possible recessive gene appearing at a low frequency. Alternatively, four-leaf clovers could be caused by somatic mutation or a developmental error of environmental causes. They could also be caused by the interaction of several genes that happen to segregate in the individual plant. It is possible all four explanations could apply to individual cases"

@chaseoilio - Cheers to you for being the first to do this on Sythe. Might buy one if I can't find one of my own.. That is a LOT. Did you find them all together or did you go searching?
