Yes, very tricky when trying to make them look real. I was playing with leaves
again the other day myself.

Here's a leaf I made from two differenced cylinders (for a bit of curvature). It
has both front and rear textures and a simple scattering media interior.

I stacked two of them into a union, then rotated another instance of the union
180 degrees to show the back side. This test render uses front lighting.
