F17r plant: Alkanna Tinctoria?

[Koen G]

I'd like to add to this discussion that an impressive amount of the VM plants are different and unique. If someone just improvised, they would quickly start duplicating stuff, and in the VM this only seems to happen with certain types of flowers. But look at any of the large plant drawings and they are quite unique as a whole. Many of the leaf shapes and arrangements are unparalleled.

The collection of plant drawings is very high entropy.

I agree with the sentiments expressed by Bernd and Rene, but would add that some guiding source or principle must have been employed to give rise to this diversity.
