U+8429 "萩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
萩
U+8429 "萩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally refers to a type of mugwort or wormwood plant, specifically Artemisia, and is often used in East Asian contexts to denote a bushy herbaceous plant associated with autumn. In Japanese, it is read as "hagi" and commonly represents the Japanese bush clover, a beloved autumnal plant featured in poetry and cultural motifs. This character is composed of the grass radical (艹) atop the phonetic component 秋, which itself means "autumn," reinforcing the plant's seasonal association. It falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block and is used in modern and classical texts across these languages.
