Edit - Thanks Ratfinkz for indicating I noted the wrong cell to exclude from the whispering branch. My comment is accurate now:
R6C1 is NOT on the whispering branch! Refer to the photo in Raetselportal. In Pad it reaches ambiguously far into R6C1.
Great puzzle, honestly so fun.

Fun little puzzle! Would be especially great for beginners, and I loved the theming. One minor point is that it was a little ambiguous (at least viewing the puzzle on CTC) whether the canopy extended into r5c3. The rules do refer to "branches" rather than leaves, but I was momentarily paranoid.
Thanks so much! Hmmm I don't quite know what to do about the branches as they show up differently on different technology!
