The Met has a blog about Medieval Gardens. Entries include information on plants, what they were used for or represented, the medieval calendar of planting, etc.

Many of the entries have pics of the plants displayed in Books of Hours, tapestries and embroideries, as well as the physical plants themselves. Plan to spend some time browsing.
