I have found two more images of Atropa Belladonna. Both are under the name of "fava inversa".
Left: Alchemical herbal BL MS. Canon. Misc. 408 (1378)
Right: Giovanni Cadamosto Vienna ONB Cod. 5264 Han.  (1470 ca)

Observing the two images in the previous post, it seems to me that the general shape of the Voynich plant is compatible with that of the Alchemical illustration. The monster root and the large black berry are closer to Cadamosto's herbal (but the shape of the berries in the alchemical belladonna is a better fit). In my opinion, by combining these two illustrations, one gets a reasonable approximation of the Voynich plant. Possibly, the most prominent missing feature are the alternating colors of the leaves.
