To suggest a plant, I would consider this one.
The root bulb, and the round leaves with the bump are a distinctive feature.
It has also been described in other books, perhaps the entry in Greek is important.
But this is not the part that interests me, it is the listing 1-5 and the associated characters.
It seems to be a repetition here.
Question: What is he trying to tell me? Does he want to explain to me the important characteristics between flower, leaves and root?
Where in other books has such a list been made for plants?
Could we say that the ink between the numbers and the VM signs is the same? If not the same person, but the same inkwell?
Can I assume that the individual characters, when they stand alone in the VM text, can also be judged as a number?
There are signs that they sometimes stand for numbers.
For example, in a mixing ratio.
How would you judge this characteristic? Here it is more a matter of feeling than knowing.
