Dear Chris,
I think the leaves are the only VMS plant part relevant to the accurate identification of the images with the flowers and roots often being generic or purposefully misleading.
On f25v, the code for the plant is shown exactly one time as a Group I code. The author/artist may have felt the rather generic looking leaves needed additional identification. Since one of the names for the plant is bearberry, the small indistinct bear would be an ideal mnemonic that wouldn't need to be reidentified after the first time a person learned the code identifications.
Please remember, these claims have not yet been accepted by any group of adherents that I know about. They are, at this point, solely my own beliefs.
If you see anything that looks wrong or fudged, please bring it to my attention. If you have questions, feel free to ask.
Thank you.
