Interesting Fact about Fibonacci:
It is in nature like the branch of the trees, the arrangement of a pine cone, and the straighten fern. For the flowers, the number of petals is a Fibonacci number. A rare variation of the common three-leaf clover is the four-leaf clover. These four-leaf clovers bring good luck. Because according to superstition, it is lucky since four is not a Fibonacci Number and it is rare.
