  I was perusing the voynich the other day when I came across what I call the folio, "Garden of Eden" you know the snake folio.  It's You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..  I'm so wish washy on the Voynich, I know, does it have meaning, maybe not?  Anyway it suddenly dawned on me when I looked at the flowers coming from one the Calyx's and I saw 3 and the Calyx had one stem.  I looked this up and its impossible unless I'm mistaken.  It does attempt to have what looks like 3 red, but no stems, except one for 3 flowers on a Calyx.  The main Calyx has the stem with one flower, that's how it supposed to work.  
  
  I understand if this was a secret code with instructions for prohibited information and valuable information of the time; I do think the author or authors was involved with the pictures would at least maintain this accuracy.  So why would there be fake flowers in there for a medicinal, in a mix among what looks like genuine plants? The telling feature I think is that well this is rushed and it might not be a medicinal?  Could the text be rushed too?  Am I implying that it does not mean anything if the text is rushed, no.  However, if you are making up plants, could you make up text, yes.  Does that have meaning to the person it could, but would it be common to the public maybe not.
  
  The fact that this flower is made up, could mean the text is made up.  Yes the script is invented, but what I'm saying is that this might not follow a language, it could be an invented language.  It does have structure and by now humans should have found a language for the Voynich.  So if it is an invented language how does one interpret the grammar and try to at least substitute a language as a model to make any sense from it.  The voynich grammar from vord positions should show the model language.  If this cannot be found then we may very well have something that only has meaning to the author or authors.  This means the public was never meant to see the Voynich.

  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.

  The snakes - I suppose show that it had been used against their poison.
  The text is not made up, but very useful and explaiining the medicinal uses of the herbs. It may have secret meanings - especially with roots representation, but I do not know  either.

  Maybe I was being vague or the explanation seemed to run into the answer about the flower.
  
  What I was trying to state in a medicinal business it's not quite so simple.  Flowers are the central ingredient of a medicinal and their compounds is what makes their unique remedies. I think the manuscript pretends to be a medicinal.  Who would make this mistake and I do believe the author of the script, was the artist.  Stolfi says 20% of the script could be mistakes, but I don't know his thoughts if the voynich has meaning.

  In the real world where Truth is reality not a pretense like you suggest and flowers don't grow like that.  I just don't think that someone who knows about the nature of flowers medicinally would portray a flower like that.
