You’re too kind. I’m glad you like it! Thank you for the compliment! I model plants occasionally. This was the very first 3D plant component I successfully modeled.
Usually, I just download them from the 3D Warehouse instead of modeling them, but occasionally I model plants if I can’t find the one I want on the 3D Warehouse. I saw your post and thought it would be a relaxing exercise while I take a break on my 10 bedroom house design I’m making. 
My favorite thing about the house is it’s a community living situation where ten people live together and share the same kitchen, bathroom stalls, etc. Then they can all split the cost of the large house. It’s borderline almost a mansion, but not quite.
You could use a bump map to make close ups look more realistic, but that would make render times even longer.
