blossom: [OE] Blossom probably comes ultimately from an Indo-European base *bhlōs-, which was also the source of Latin flōs, from which English gets flower. It seems reasonable to suppose, in view of the semantic connections, that this *bhlōs- was an extended form of *bhlō-, from which English gets blade, bloom, and the now archaic verb blow ‘come into flower’.
=> blade, bloom, blow, flower
- blossom (n.)

This is the native word, now largely superseded by bloom (n.1) and flower (n.).
