The shamrock has 3 leaflets. St. Patrick used it as a graphical example to describe the Trinity (Three in One) to the pagan Irish when he began his ministry. There is no particular significance for the 4-leaf clover except that it might be substituted by secularists who want to divert the holiday to celebrate secular or pagan concepts.
