What 珻 means
珻 is a variant of 玫, with a jade-name gloss.
The early Chinese character dictionary 說文解字 omits 珻; later dictionaries 玉篇 and 集韻 give the jade-name gloss.
Han-dynasty sources use 玫瑰 for a precious red gem; Tang-dynasty sources also use it for a flowering plant. This history belongs to 玫瑰, not to a separate rose meaning for 珻.
A box for 珻 means the font lacks its glyph; the character itself is unchanged.
For the familiar spelling of 玫瑰, use 玫; 珻 is rare and may look like a typo.

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
