The transparency of the stem is not meant to be realistic. It's not shown in 
this image, but the stem actually fades to completely transparent further 
down, giving it an unreal feel. (The image shown here will be part of a 
larger motive.)

Yes, I did that initially. However, I found that the green color didn't fit 
with the color scheme and ruined the style I was trying to create. So I have 
decided to only have shades of gray and shades of red and orange in the 
picture. Some real stems are red too anyway.
