f18v...Dioscorides...something about those leaves

This is the closest match I think I have seen for imagery. I remember this image from VM because I always felt like the images (circled in red and blue) had a lot more care taken with them ,so much so, it looked like another artist. Both circled leaves show movement and "3d" qualities when compared to other leaves on the page. The red is bird-like and the blue is mimicking movement, presumably of wind on the leaf. I see the same bird like artistic characteristics and the same (wind) movement, also the single and double leaves directly off the stem are also shown in both. I would personally be amazed if the leaves of both images were not based on the same plant, or a copy of artwork. 

In both images you (to continue the bird theme) have some leaves showing the wings, body and tail feathers, then some which do not have tail feathers.

I can also see the "3D Sleeve" above the roots, and the (very) general representation of root pattern
