About
The character 榴 combines the wood radical 木 on the left, indicating its plant-related meaning, with the phonetic component 留 on the right. It primarily denotes the pomegranate tree and its fruit. Due to the fruit's many seeds, the character is also used in modern military terms for explosive weapons like grenades and shrapnel shells, as their dispersing fragments resemble the scattering seeds.
