Meanings and usage
noun: perilla (culinary herb), a surname (Su)

蘇
The character carries many unrelated senses (culinary herb, surname, short forms for Jiangsu/Suzhou/USSR/Scotland, an alternative form of 甦 'to revive'); the plant/surname senses were picked as the most plausible base meaning but this is uncertain without more context.
