U+8602 "蘂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

蘂

U+8602 "蘂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or classical Chinese character representing the stamen or pistil of a flower, specifically the inner, reproductive parts of a bloom. It is an alternate, more intricate form of the common character "蕊" (ruǐ), which also means stamen or bud, and is frequently encountered in classical poetry, botanical texts, and traditional calligraphy. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, this character encodes a unique glyph distinct from its simplified counterpart, reflecting the historical and aesthetic depth of written Chinese. It is used primarily in literary or formal contexts where archaic or ornate variants are preferred.
