欒棘 (The upper character is pronounced 盧 plus 桓 in fanqie. The Liji says: 'At the tomb of the Son of Heaven, pine trees are planted; for feudal lords, cypresses; for grandees, goldenrain trees; for servicemen, willows.' The Shuowen says: 'The 欒 tree resembles the 欄 tree; it is composed of the radical 木 with an abbreviated 欒 as the phonetic element.' The lower character is pronounced 矜 plus 力 in fanqie. The Mao commentary on the Shijing says: '棘 is the wild jujube.' Guo's commentary on the Erya says: 'The upside-down jujube has fine leaves and thorns; there are also commercial jujubes, ox jujubes, and horse jujubes.' The Shuowen says: 'Resembling a jujube, growing in clumps; it is composed of two 朿.' The Guangya says: '棘 means thorns or needles.')
