Hello, I've done some experimenting with custom leaves with a fair
amount of success. I think the complexity has to be really limited
and also the stem has to be apparent in the design so that Cararra
knows where to attach to the branch. It seems like anything more
than a simple flat flower shape might be too complex for it. An
alternative might be to use the flowers for a tip object in Anything
Grows on a sphere or something and make the base invisible and try
to position it within the tree or bush you are trying to create.
