What is special about Voynich plants?

[ReneZ]

I'm also not sure who first mentioned MS Sloane 335 in connection with the Voynich MS, but I remember when I first saw it, that it struck me as "very Voynich-like".
This was before I had started to look more intensively at medieval illustrated herbals, and now I no longer see it as Voynich-like. The similarity I felt at first sight was probably simply due to the fact that this is something from roughly the same time frame.
The main difference I see with the Voynich MS is that here, with a few even strokes, the draughtsman creates a simple but elegant rendition of a plant. "Every stroke fits" so to speak.
The herb with the dots, in the top left, seems to be 'brusci' which appears in Tractatus de Herbis with red dots.
