Possibly there are four o five more plants that can be recognized without a doubt, but they are the exception that proves the rule, the fact that 95% of the herbs drawn in the book are invented.

There is nothing to say about these unknown herbs, only to put them in connection with the sky through an astronomical code that uses certain rules. It doesn't make sense to us but it does make sense to a medieval man.
