Sketchup imported file with png image material, dont show the png image in revit

This tree I downloaded from 3dwarehouse is the only Polyalthia Tree 3d model I could find. Apparently there is a png image used for the leaves,  the png is the tree's leaf without background. 

 

The image below shows the tree on sketchup: 

polyalthia tree sketchup.png

 

Now in the image below you can notice that the image is like an png image with no backgroud, when selected the object is a rectangular plane: 

polyalthia tree sketchup (2).png

 

When I import it to revit I get only the plane, without the "png " image of the leaf

How can i make those leaves to appear on revit? or how can I turn this tree into a green one?

Is the PNG assigned to the Material that the Sketchup is using (Object Styles=>Imported Objects)?

You would have to recreate a material using the leaf image AND another Cut-out image to make the part outside the leaves transparent.  Just use an RPC tree come with Revit instead.
