- I gather shamrocks on St Patrick's day. The Shamrock is a tiny green plant with three smooth green leaves. There is another plant of the same kind called the clover and it has white spots on the leaves and they are covered with small hairs and that is how we know it from the shamrock. I gather a bunch of shamrocks in my hand. I get them growing in among the grass in the grass fields.
