When a preposition phrase such as "in addition to" is used at the beginning of a sentence, its subject must be the main clause's subject. In this case, the subject is "leaves"; therefore, "in addition to" is ambiguous and incorrect. Moreover, "its" in A and B does not match "leaves", and the idiom is "possibilities of" not "possibilities for/to."

楼上的NN,

In this case, the subject is "leaves"; therefore, "in addition to" is ambiguous and incorrect.

是不是 如果用in addition to作为介词,后面跟名词,而且属性和主语的leaves相对应.就好像like这么用.
