While I am fairly happy classifying the large plants as fantasy, I'm not so sure about the small plants in the pharma section. From what I hear, native Americans were quite big on herbal medicine, so I'd say there's a far greater chance that the small plants are real plants. What's your opinion on that?
Just from looking at them, they look like real plants to me. Some are recognizable and the root forms are all valid forms.
Just my opinion, but I think they are probably real plants.
In the Middle Ages, everyone was big on herbal medicine. There were no synthetic drugs. Plants were drugs. Plants were medicine. This was true in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. All medicine was plant-based at the time (with a few minerals and some honey thrown in for good measure).
