cjk unified ideograph-2b20e

Plant-name character

2831/4154

𫈎 is a simplified variant of 葝, a Chinese character used for plant names. Older texts give it two botanical senses, so surrounding wording helps identify which plant is meant.

Text symbol

What 𫈎 means

It can name a mountain allium or a “mouse-tail” herb. The Er Ya, an early Chinese glossary, records the older form 葝 in separate entries: 山䪥 (mountain allium) and 鼠尾 (a “mouse-tail” herb). A note says the latter could make black dye.

Unicode’s Unihan data maps 葝 to 𫈎 as a simplified variant. The two Mandarin readings are qíng for 山䪥 and jìng for 鼠尾; surrounding words distinguish the intended plant.

Why can 𫈎 show as a box?

A font may lack its glyph. Text systems can then show a missing-glyph box while preserving 𫈎 as the underlying character.
