Chain a 45cm (17.71")  long strip. Starting from 2nd ch from hook 14sc. Make a leaf: ch 10, starting from 2nd ch from hook 9sc. Continue crocheting along the main strip, 23sc. Make another leaf: ch 10, starting from 2nd ch from hook 9sc. Repeat the process as many times as required, you may want to leave gaps of various lengths between the leaves to make it look more realistic. See the picture for guidance.
