Grow Your Own Shamrock
The name Shamrock is derived from the Irish 'seamrog' meaning
'summer plant'. It is Ireland's most famous symbol and symbolises the
Cross and the Blessed Trinity. Its trefoil shaped leaves meant it was a
sacred plant of the ancient Druids of Ireland and of other ancient
civilizations around the world. The Shamrock is forever connected to
the teachings of the Three in One Trinity by St. Patrick in the fifth
century and his banishment of serpents from Ireland as snakes would
never be seen on trefoil.
Plant a Tree or Shrub
Tree planting is one of the most important ceremonies any culture
can preform. It generates life into the earth and provides a lasting
testimony to any event; be it the opening of a building, the birth of a
child or the start of a couple's new life together on their wedding
day. As the tree grows so does the foundation on which each event is
placed.
What better way to mark such a momentous occasion as a tree planting cermeony than to plant this tree in Official Irish Dirt?
This will bring luck to the occasion and will breath a bit of
Ireland into the life of the tree, the fruits it may bear and into the
lives of the people who rejoice in its presence
