My question has nothing to do with the singularity or plurality of the noun 'leaf', but with the meaning of adjectives 'dry' and 'dried'.
I just learnt that 'dry' simply means free from liquid or moisture, whereas 'dried' is describing something that went through the process of drying.
I hope this helps.
