new leaves
Spring's green growth
New leaves are the fresh growth on plants, typically appearing in spring—tender, bright green, and not yet fully developed.
The phrase often carries connotations of renewal and fresh starts.
To turn over a new leaf is to make a fresh start or change one's behavior for the better, as if beginning a blank page.
