Book Description
"One of the reasons for writing this book is to draw attention to the urgent necessity for the immediate adoption of efficient methods of protecting Moutan peonies in their natural habitat." -- P. 15. "In the Far East the tree peony is the flower at the head of the floral hierarchy, and is an important part of Chinese and Japanese cultural heritage.... This is the first time that photographs and descriptions of tree peonies found by the author growing wild on the Chinese mountains have been published.... The tree peony is difficult to propagate but, once established, it is practically indestructible...." -- Dust jacket.
