What 蔖 means
Normalization maps it to 蔖.
Unicode links 蔖 to 蔖 and defines a variation-selector sequence for this glyph distinction. Its source is position 7-276D in Taiwan’s CNS 11643 character-encoding standard, retained for round-trip text conversion.
The character 蔖 has an older record in Erya, a Chinese dictionary compiled from the Spring and Autumn period through the early Western Han: its plant glossary lists 蓾 as 蔖. A commentary from the Song dynasty says this grass was used for shoe soles.

Questions people ask
1Why does 蔖 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
