84.35

Planting trees (植㮏; [植 is] shi-li fan; the Fangyan says: 'Zhi means to set upright.' The Yunquan says: 'Zhi means to sprout and grow.' Zheng's commentary on the Rites of Zhou says: 'Zhi refers to rooted plants.' It has the 'wood' radical and the phonetic zhi. The second is pronounced nai, a vulgar character; the Shuowen says: 'A kind of fruit.' It has the 'wood' radical and the phonetic shi. In the text adding another 'wood' to make 㮏 is an error).
