Re: VMs: Similar Plant VMS and The Herbal of Dioscorides Pedanius

["Larry Roux" <LRoux@xxxxxxx>]

The three flowers at the top, the rows of pointed leaves and the oval root.  Of course the F17r version is missing the intermediate rows of flowers/or leaves along the sides.  I just saw it while thumbing through verious herbals and this one hit me as "I have seen this before".

Isn't the leaf structure rather different?  I do see the general
similarity, of course.
