You could have answered this question yourself simply by looking at the scan for 17v.
If you look at the clip again...
you will see a curved green shape next to the lines that look like a straight stalk on 17r. It's on the lower-right quadrant. That's the bleed-through from the stalk on the obverse side, and it clearly reflects a curved viney slightly green stalk (with red berries, florets, or seeds attached), not a straight stalk with a flower on the end as is seen on this page.
I'm not 100% sure it's a flower on this side (f17r) because it's faint, but it certainly looks like one and is in the same drawing style as other flowers in the manuscript.
