I dream about bizarre plants quite often, mushrooms as well, sometimes I will be collecting and eating neon pink and purple spotted mushrooms, or various other plants of the imagination


Have you ever looked at the voynich manuscript? It's an early 15th century manuscript, it's written in an unreadable and unknown language and depicts many bizarre plants which appear to be purely imaginary...


The manuscript was once in the possession of the alchemical emperor Rudolph the 2nd of Prague, and may have some connection to John Dee and Edward Kelley, regardless, it's a fascinating and mysterious item with a rich history...


I have tried to match up voynich plants with real plants, I found one that resembles  desmanthus leptolobus and one that resembles Catha edulis...
