Hi Koen,
as I think we discussed, the text of Palatino 586 is based on Tractatus de Herbis, and the ms is accordingly arranged in alphabetical order. If you go through Egerton 747 starting from where the Palatino text stops, with some patience, it's possible to see that the images largely correspond (but for the fact that the Egerton illustrations are strictly scientific / naturalistic).
The page you attached (f34) corresponds to Egerton 747 f50r/v.

The four plants appear to be:
Inantes / Lambruscus - Grapewine
(Woad seems to be missing in the Platino ms)
Ina / Yva - Ground-pine [this looks partially different, one should check later copies of the De Herbis]
Incensaria - Primrose
Ieribulbus - Garlic
(Latin names form the ms, English from the BL site).
