It's an obsolete character. I can't find any information other than it being 'some sort of tree' either. Where did you see this character? You should not see it in any contemporary written material. JamesjiaoTC 02:58, 10 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
In Japanese, at least, it seems to refer to the Asian Bayberry. — I.S.M.E.T.A. 09:06, 12 November 2014 (UTC)Reply


KangXi dictionary entry for 梛

[edit]

Here's the KangXi dictionary text for this character, if anyone wants to improve the definition I added: 《集韻》《類篇》𠀤囊何切,音那。木名。《桂海虞衡志》拘那,花葉瘦長,略似楊柳,夏開淡紅花,一朶數十萼,秋深猶有之。 Bumm13 (talk) 12:49, 12 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
