Characters in the same phonetic series (壴) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 

	Old Chinese
壴	*tos
廚	*do
躕	*do
櫥	*do
幮	*do
樹	*djoʔ, *djos
澍	*tjos, *djos
尌	*djos

Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *djos) : semantic 木 (“tree”) + semantic 寸 (“hand”) + phonetic 豆 (OC *doːs) – a hand planting a tree.

In the modern form, 木 and 豆 have fused into 壴, and the character may be interpreted as a phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *djos) : phonetic 壴 (OC *tos) + semantic 寸 (“hand”).

This character has largely been superseded by 樹 (OC *djoʔ, *djos).
