In Irish tradition, a three leaf clover supposedly represents the Holy Trinity - The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. If a four leaf clover is found, then the fourth leaf is considered to bring God's Grace. They also believe that when St. Patrick was trying to teach the Irish people and others about Christianity, he used the three-leaf to help then understand the concept of the Holy Trinity.

What does an Irish shamrock look like?

The Shamrock does NOT have four leaves. It has three. The reason it is an Irish symbol is because St. Patrick used it in explaining to the people of Ireland about the Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. He used each leaf as a representation of each person in the Trinity. The use in the USA of a four-leafed clover in representations of Ireland is due to the belief that a four-leaf clover is lucky and it fits with the expression, 'the luck of the Irish'. In Ireland a four-leaf clover has no particular cultural symbolism.
