Dry-leaf reading game

A friend of mine works in tea and was doing some research on Long Jing when she came across this. Figured it made a fun little dry-leaf reading game for us, so I'm sharing it here too.

Curious what people notice just from the photo. What's your read?

A few things I think worth looking at: leaf shape (flat and smooth vs uneven), color consistency across the batch, and whether it looks like it could be a mix of more than one cultivar or grade.
