If it's a medicinal why the lack of accuracy?
#2
This is a question I posed online.  Are flowers really important to a medicinal document?  

Apparently flowers are highly important to medicinal remedies and play a vital role bioactive compounds.  The main consensus is that the Voynich is a medicinal.  I feel its a medicinal too, yet could it be the artist being the author was not so good with depictions.  Maybe the snake was the reminder of what the plant was for. I find it troubling that if flowers are so important that this little discrepancy in You are not allowed to view links.

I conclude that the artist was an amateur.
