The size of the flower usually ranges from 6-12 inches cross.It is the flower component that is used to classify the plant's cultivar, using characteristics such as the flower form and color.The epidermis of its roots is used in traditional Chinese medicine, called "mudanpi"

Paeonia suffruticosa belongs to the peony family. The most distinctive feature is that Paeonia suffruticosa is a bush or a tree, whereas most peonies are herbaceous. Despite their classification as trees, it is the flowers that attract people's attention. Peonies are generally slow to grow and have flowers that only last briefly and are fragile under weather conditions such as wind, rain or hot temperatures.In comparison, Paeonia suffruticosa, as a tree, survives longer than the rest of the peonies. The woody stems of tree peonies allow the plant to survive in winter.In general, the plant is long-lived, and the flowers bloom longer in the early spring.
