Glyph origin
Characters in the same phonetic series (杏) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
杏 *ɡraːŋʔ
莕 *ɡraːŋʔ

Ideogrammic compound (會意) : 木 (“wood”) + 口 (“mouth”) – perhaps referring to the tastiness of its fruit.

Shuowen considers it to be a phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *ɡraːŋʔ) : semantic 木 (“wood”) + abbreviated phonetic 可 (OC *kʰaːlʔ), but this is unlikely.
