Perhaps the leaf clusters themselves are portrayed, the leaves as a group are indeed shaped like spades, even if the individual leaves aren't. In comparison with the fruit clusters, the sizing could work.
The root doesn't appear to match either though, nor does the fruit really. Can you think of a mnemonic that would make the root plump when it normally seems to look like upsidedown umbrella ribs?
