This kanji stands for a winter, and is pronounced "ふゆ huyu" or "とう tou".
It originally came from hieroglyph which expresses a situation hanging foods for storage, and it turned out the kanji indicating a season when we store foods.
Example:
もう冬だねぇ。 - It's almost winter.
冬眠したい。 - I want to have a winter sleep.
Personally I love the phrase "もう冬だねぇ。" because it can indicate variety kinds of feeling of the person who say it. That unclear but implicit phrase is beautiful. I think most of Japanese think so. This non-direct expression is Japanese culture.
