CJK Unified Ideograph-82E4

13541/20992

苤 is documented as pī, “flowers in full bloom,” and as piě in 苤藍/苤蓝, a name for kohlrabi. Modern references place the plant sense in that compound, alongside names such as 擘蓝, 撇蓝, and 玉蔓青 for the same vegetable. As of 2026, no named inventor or original practical purpose is documented in the sources checked. The earliest dictionary evidence I found is its gloss in the Yupian around 543.

Why does 苤 show as a box on some devices?

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.
