"There are many varieties of peonies, and there are many colors. Yellow, green, flesh red, dark red, and silver red are the best, especially yellow and green.

It likes a warm, dry, sunny environment. It prefers sunlight, but it also has the characteristics of tolerance to semi-shade and cold. It avoids waterlogging and is afraid of heat, so it is suitable for growing in neutral sandy loam with loose geology and good drainage.The Culture of PeonyAccording to Liu Yuxi's poem "The peony in front of the courtyard is spooky and has no style, the lotus on the pond is pure and has little emotion. Only the peony is the true national beauty, and the capital city is moved when it blooms.", the peony is very popular not only now but also in ancient times. In 1985, the peony was rated second among the top ten famous flowers in China. It has long been introduced all over the world and is hailed as the king of flowers.
