So maybe indeed the stalk and leaf arrangement of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. are copied from a brussels sprouts plant that happened to be growing on the Scribe's garden.  But the flowers definitely are not...

All the best, --stolfi

For me it seems that the scribe writing the manuscript misunderstood how the plant grows, from a far it may look like vines spiral around the plant with the buds on them because on the actual plant the buds do spiral upwards but on the stalk instead of on two stalks (see picture).
Also remember that it is a plant cultivated for eating meaning that it has been selectively bred to produce as much buds as possible so the shape and quantity could've changed over time.

You say that the leaves don't match but if the plants in the voynich manuscript had easily identifiable leaves then more plants would have been identified, I dont think that the shape of the leaves matter too much, seeing as nearly no plants can be identified Sick
