Ruby, the eagle was an ancient Illyrian symbol and when Rudolph IV elevated Carniola (which in pre-Roman times was part of Illyria and part of Venetia) to Duchy, the eagle was accepted as its coats of arms. Besides in many medieval manuscripts, it can also be found in the fresco at the Runkenstain castle. The Carniola was called Krain in Slovenian language.
As to the question why somebody would depict a plant with roots like eagle, I have only one explanation. The plant should be interpreted symbolically. There are no plants that would have a blossom like a plant with the eagle root. I see in it ouroboro made of flowers (that is poem and wisdom) that makes some sort of near-completion.
