i think that most if not all plants of the VM have been drawn according to nature, especially if you take the small plants section into account. I think it would be a possibility to fall back on the herbals of the late 15th century, which are only about forty years later and to achieve at least some identification appropriate to the time, the identification with modern species i think is largely illusory
