Peonies are often mentioned in romantic Chinese poetry and literature and are used as the main motifs of decorative art, their image can be found on porcelain and tapestries. In Feng Shui, the plant is used to attract romance, wealth and good luck.
During the rule of the Chinese Tang dynasty, peonies became part of the dowry of Yang Gui Fei. This beauty abundantly decorated her bedroom with flowers, and her garden was completely planted with them. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why she became the emperor's most beloved concubine of a thousand other girls.
