What 藌 means
It names a lotus plant’s young shoot.
The Chinese dictionary 說文解字 records 蔤 in seal script, an older formal Chinese writing style. The dictionaries 玉篇 and 集韻 record 藌; it keeps the lotus-shoot word but uses 蜜 instead of 密 for the part that hints at pronunciation.
A dictionary-style botanical term, not everyday chat vocabulary.
Alone in a message, it may look mistyped; botanical context makes the reading clearer.

1Why does 藌 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.
