I don't recall any herbals being in the KBR library, which made me wonder, why / if a royal library would have a use for such texts. Would herbals more likely be found in monasteries or elsewhere?
I've identified and classified drawings from about 100 classical, medieval (and a few early renaissance) plant books, but there are many more that are not illustrated (e.g., Ms Fabr. 91 4°), so it's a pretty long list. Many are in national libraries.
If you're looking for ones in the Anglo-Norman/Flemish/Northern France region, one of the important early ones is Leiden Voss. Lat. Q.9.
