I'd try giving some transparency to the image_map and wrap all the leaves in an union.
Then, have a 
base pattern like gradient, to give  an overall shade variation, and granite, to give
some random 
shade variations. You need to make your polygon as tight as possible to show the under
pattern as 
little as possible.
