One of the most famous sakura trees in Japan- nestled high in the mountains of Okayama Prefecture. It's more than a thousand years old, and named after Emperor Go-Daigo, who stopped to rest there and blessed the tree.

That's really pretty. Does it being named Zakura have anything to do with it being a sakura tree, or is it just a coincidence that it's spelled almost the same?

It’s because it’s a Sakura tree! Certain sound skills in Japanese change to similar sounds, depending on the word or syllable in front of it. “S” and “z” are one of those pairs. It’s also very common with “k” and “g”. For example, koro/goro is used interchangeably. (It refers to a time period. Like, kodomo (child) goro would mean “childhood”.
