Unicode Version 17.0
茎
U+830E "茎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "stem" or "stalk" of a plant, referring to the main structural axis that supports leaves and flowers. It is composed of the radical for grass or plant (艹) combined with a phonetic component, reflecting its botanical context. In traditional and simplified Chinese, as well as in Japanese and Korean usage, this character appears in words related to plant anatomy, such as "茎葉" (stem and leaves) or "塊茎" (tuber). Its encoding in Unicode allows for consistent digital representation across platforms, preserving its role in East Asian writing systems for describing vegetative parts of plants.
