"Inserted daisies” on folio 40 line up? A coincidence?
#5
It is quite interesting, also because in both cases, the location of the daisies makes sense from a design standpoint. (We are far beyond caring about naturalism in the case of these plants). I mean, in both cases, they are at the centre of a larger flower. 

We have no way of knowing which plant was drawn first, though maybe the recto has a slight advantage. In either case, it would mean that the daisy from the other side served as a focus for the drawing of the flower.

Keep in mind that we see this sort of whimsy elsewhere too, where roots are positioned to incorporate a hole in the parchment.
