Hello JKP,
I didn't know that dots could stand for 'hairiness' or other characteristics - thank you.
In the case of f7v, the fact that the plant is hairy would be denoted twice then, since the drawer already put plenty of little hair-like strokes around all the leaves.
But do you know of other examples in medieval herbals where something is signified by one single dot per leaf?
