Morphology
efflorescence = effloresce (transparent) = ef + floresc + ence
The noun is formed from the verb 'effloresce' (to bloom) with the productive noun suffix '-ence', so the meaning 'the process of flowering' follows directly.
Etymology
Efflorescence comes from Latin parts ex- 'out' and florere 'to flower', so it literally means 'to flower out'. Think of a tree or garden 'flowering out' — that's why efflorescence can mean the time when flowers bloom.
