What 篬 means
A bamboo name, or a color associated with bamboo.
The dictionary 說文 has no entry for 篬; 玉篇 records the bamboo sense and 集韻 the color sense. In the Wang Su version of 禮·月令, a classical text on the monthly ritual calendar, 篬玉 appears where another text has 倉玉.
It has a literary, dictionary-like feel; the surrounding text identifies whether bamboo or its color is meant.
Do not send 篬 alone if you need one particular sense understood.
