How did the shamrock become the Irish symbol?

In Ireland, "the wearing of the green" meaning to wear a shamrock on one's clothing was seen as a sign of Irish pride or loyalty to the Roman Catholic faith. St. Patrick used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pre-Christian Irish. The wearing of shamrocks became a feature of the saint's holiday.
