These leaves are amazing Lucy!!! Be careful not to outline the stem. Even though it is narrow the stem should have a range of tones to convey that it is an extended cylinder. I am confused about what is going on with the buds (especially the one on the right) and I think some further toning would help clear it up.
Yes, very delicate, lyrical leaves here, Lucy. I agree with Doug that you could work those buds a little more; remember that even though they have all those segmented parts, the entire bud should have a 3-d feel; a shadow side and a highlight. Great work!

The toning on your leaves is so nice, Lucy.
