Unicode Version 17.0
薆
U+8586 "薆" CJK Unified Ideograph is a Chinese character (hanzi) that represents a type of plant or herb, specifically identified as a kind of mugwort or artemisia, often used in traditional contexts. It conveys meanings related to covering, shading, or obscuring, and can also imply a sense of hidden or concealed growth, such as dense vegetation. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, and its usage appears in classical Chinese texts where it describes lush, overgrown foliage or the act of sheltering. While not common in modern everyday writing, it remains relevant in historical and literary studies of East Asian scripts.
