This is just frickin' neat: A 56-leaf clover. It was bred by farmer Shigeo Obara, who had previously held the Guiness World Record with an 18-leaf clover. "I never dreamed of seeing this many leaves on a clover," Shigeo told the Associated Press. Shigeo had to decal the leaves as he counted them to avoid double-counting - wow.
Though, honestly, I'm not impressed - try counting all the leaves on a 3' mangrove sapling when its 95 degrees out with no shade. Now that is a lot of leaves to count. Right, Allie? :)

How cool! 14x lucky.
Hey, I'm down or some mangrove leaf counting as long as you help me inventory the invert community in the mangle roots!
Personally I find mangroves to be luckier for me anyways.
This seems appropriate somehow
450 leaves on one seedling, and not being sure if you already counted a certain branch or not, is NOT fun!
