Origin

From Middle English arbour, erbour, from Old French erbier (“field, meadow, kitchen garden

From Middle English arbour, erbour, from Old French erbier (“field, meadow, kitchen garden”), from erbe (“grass, herb”), from Latin herba (“grass, herb”) (English herb). (Compare Late Latin herbārium, although erbier is possibly an independent formation.) The spelling was influenced by Latin arbor (“tree”).

Borrowed from French arbre (“tree, axis”), spelling influenced by Latin arbor (“tree”).
