A botanical story
Native to Central and Eastern Asia, the peony is a resilient, slow-growing plant long valued for its beauty and healing properties. Cultivated in China since the 6th century and used in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory and soothing effects, it later gained popularity in Europe for its strength and elegance.
