Im trying to replicate this plant
I get to this point where I am quite happy with it
the problem comes when I try to bend the main trunk, all the leaf seem to turn around the trunk and fall in the same direction
I've found that I can avoid this using after mesh modifiers
But now that i want to create a bigger plant with severals trunks I can't control the direction of this trunks with after mesh modifiers.
I can fix it changing the angle bend for the leaves from 1 to 20, but then i'm loosing the effect that the leaves are breaking off the trunk.
Whats the proper way to do this effect?? or how can I avoid the leaf doing this??
