I've seen four-leaf clover seed for sale through comic books when I was a kid. It's a good bet they still sell the stuff. Pixie dust is mereley the spores of a particular fern species, but it must be harvested on midsummer's eve. It shouldn't hurt the insects but you might develop a weed problem.

Hey Alan, last night I was working on that experiment we were discussing:

The effect of Leprechaun urine as a growth hormone for prunus.   

To attract the Leprechauns I thought I should sow an organic living mulch of 4 leaf clover, but I can’t find a supplier that carries seed for 4 leaf clover – at least not organic seed  Any suggestion?    Give me a call buddy and we can discuss it. 

And, as to your idea...while Pixie dust sounds interesting have you given any thought to how you will apply it?  I mean were you thinking of dusting it as powder or spraying it - are you going to use a sticker spreader?  And how do you know Pixie dust won' be harmful to bees?  I really think you need to run a controlled test on the Pixie dust there buddy.  No scientist worth his salt would just spread Pixie dust all over his orchard without at least considering the impact on beneficial insects.

There is ridicule and there is kidding.  If ridicule was the motive
sound advice and experience wouldn't be included.  Extreme civility is
sooooo boring.

I was wondering if Good Friday grafts fail if you're Muslim or Jewish? 
I assume you have an empirical study on the subject.  OK, maybe that is
ridicule, but sometimes there's a place for that.
