U+85ED "藭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
藭
U+85ED "藭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that traditionally refers to a type of medicinal plant, specifically identified as the root of the "Ligusticum" species, often associated with the herb known as "chuanxiong" in Chinese medicine, which is valued for its purported benefits in promoting blood circulation and alleviating pain. This character falls under the broader category of grass radical characters in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) ideographic set, reflecting its botanical nature, though its usage is largely confined to classical texts and specialized pharmacological contexts rather than modern everyday writing.
