The Voynich Ninja

At last year's Voynich Manuscript Day (VMD), I presented the results of the "State of the Voynich" poll. In case you missed it, you can see the video here: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. . However, tradition dictates that there is only a State of the Voynich every 4 years or so, so for this year I came up with an alternative:

We will match up all large-plant drawings from the MS and determine the forum's favorite Voynich plant! 

The structure will be as follows:

• Stage 1: plants are matched in groups of 8 or 9. A poll determines the winner in each groups.
  
• Stage 2: the group winners are matched in 4 groups of 4. A poll determines the winner of each group.
  
• Stage 3: The four winners of stage 2 battle it out in a final poll of the champions. This poll will be off-site, so the results remain hidden until VMD on 3 August, when I will reveal the winner.
  

Since this is just for fun and not serious at all, campaigning for your favorite plant in a bracket is allowed, even encouraged!

For the first bracket, the following plants are matched against each other:

1.  f2v
   
2.  f3r
   
3.  f11v
   
4.  f13v
   
5.  f19v
   
6.  f45r
   
7.  f46v
   
8.  f52r
   
9.  f66v

Voting is now open! Which one of these plants should advance to the next round?
