槜 is a phono-semantic compound: the radical 木 (tree) indicates it's a type of plum tree, and the right component 睉 (zui) provides a phonetic hint. Although 睉 itself combines 目 (eye) and 隹 (bird), the overall structure simply marks a specific fruit tree variety.

💡 Memory Tip: Picture a tree (木) where each plum looks like a bird's eye (目) and attracts birds (隹) — that's the 槜 plum.
