Had some fun with this one, turned out quite well and it was fairly easy to create.

I used this Space Tree addon in 2.79 to create the base of the bush branches, then I created a smaller branch piece with some leaves I manually placed. The leaves were basic planes with a cutout texture of a leaf. I then used that branch with a particle system emitting from the vertices of the main bush.
