I find it amazing that anyone could be "offended" by a leaf. What are you going to do this autumn, when these things are lying all over the ground?
It is illogical. As is being offended by a symbol which also happens to be part of some country's flag. Especially if that country is one which seldom bothers anyone else.
Besides, the alternatives are no better. Rainbow - people will be concerned with the programming language's sexual orientation. Penguin - PETA will picket to protest evil exploitation of poor flightless birds. Stars - no way! Nearly all "evil" countries have used stars in their flags. (Note: do not look up into the night sky. You might be offended.)
There's nothing anyone can name that someone, somewhere won't find "offensive". That is their own problem, not one we should worry about.
