@DalrympleWill The word came into English via French gaze, beyond which its history is uncertain. Du Cange suggested connecting it to the place name Gaza (Arabic: غزة ghazza),[7] but it is more likely to derive from Persian gazi, a thin cloth,[8] or Arabic: قز qaz, raw silk.[9]

The timing of the peak cherry tree blossom is influenced by spring temperatures.

Based on data from Japan stretching back to the year 812 (!), we see that in recent centuries the peak blossom has gradually moved earlier in the year—due to higher temperatures from climate change.
