Basin is better, but still I am dubious about this. For teasel, from each "cup" or "basin" only one bud emerges. And this is clearly reflected in the alternative herbals that Marco references above. In the VMS picture, it is quite different: numerous buds (namely, three) appear out of each "basin". Although in the title post there are some pics that look like the VMS one.

It depends how you want to interpret the plant. If you include the smaller upper leaves, then each head has a set of leaves, but if you include only the bigger leaves, the main ones, then there are three stalks splitting off from the big leaves. If it's a reference for others, maybe the small leaves would be included. If it's a reference for yourself, or for people who already know the plants, are the small secondary leaves necessary?
