A tree peony is a breathtaking plant all on its own, put it on a cliff above the ocean and you have
a setting that compels you to stop and admire the beauty of the scene. Trivia: Few plants are
revered like tree peonies. The Chinese tree peony is the national flower of China and was once
grown exclusively by the emperor. Some specimens in China are thought to be more than 200 years
old. Plants eventually grow to 3 to 5 feet tall, but they may take decades to do so.
