U+8518 "蔘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used primarily to represent a type of ginseng, particularly in the context of herbal medicine and historical texts. It is composed of the radical for grass or plant (艹) combined with elements indicating sound and meaning, and its usage appears in classical literature, medicinal formulas, and cultural artifacts from East Asia. While simplified Chinese often uses the character 参 for similar meanings, 蔘 retains a more specific and formal connotation, especially when referring to Panax ginseng or related species.
