桐
U+6850 "桐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily refers to the paulownia tree, a fast-growing deciduous tree valued for its light, durable wood and large, fragrant flowers. In classical Chinese literature and poetry, it often symbolizes elegance, resilience, and the arrival of spring due to its association with the phoenix legend and its distinct blooming season. The character is used in various compound words, such as "梧桐" (wutong) for the phoenix tree, and appears in historical contexts related to musical instruments, like the "桐木" (paulownia wood) used for making zithers.
