The folio f65r is very rare. While all the plants have some lines of symbols, here only a very few of glyphs are needed. And yet more rare, there are up to three consecutive (m) as final glyph, something unusual in the manuscript.
I think that (m) is, without the (i), the pointer of the a star like we see in the astrolabes. So in You are not allowed to view links.

There are two possibilities: each string with the final pointer mark a different star or is the same star moving in the celestial sphere, that is to say three different positions.
You can think that all this is too imaginative, but if you look at the plant you see that is rare as well: it has star-shaped flowers!!!
