Known since Ancient Greece for their medicinal virtues, peonies owe their name to the mythological physician Paean who appears in book V of the Iliad. In this book, Paean uses the roots of peonies to cure Hades after he was shot with an arrow by Heracles. Paeon then became an epithet of Apollo, in his capacity as a god capable of bringing disease and therefore propitiated as a god of healing. Later, Paeon also becomes an epithet of Asclepius, the healer-god.
Ancient writings seem to confirm the medical properties of peonies. Notably, their roots were commonly used to prepare medicines used to heal convulsions and other muscular diseases, to heal sores, and to cure insomnia and night terrors. They were also believed to have magical properties, capable of warding off evil spirits.
In the Middle Ages, herbaceous peonies were cultivated in monasteries and private gardens still and especially for medicinal purposes. Their virtues are due to peonin, an alkaloid found in every part of the plant, which has sedative properties.

In China, the peony contains many positive meanings, and is known as the ‘king of flowers’, and there is a webpage of Beijing Botanical Garden about the activity of identifying different kinds of peony:
“Peony, originating in China, has been cultivated for at least a thousand years according to ancient poetry and pharmacopoeia records. Due to its bright colours and large flowers, it is deeply loved by people and is often regarded as the embodiment of happiness and beauty, a symbol of prosperity, and even known as the ‘national beauty and heavenly fragrance’.The valley rain in the 24 solar terms is about to arrive, which is a good time to admire the peonies. To help the public better understand the variety of peonies, understand their history, culture, and planting and maintenance knowledge, and enrich their garden experience, on Wednesday, April 19th, the National Botanical Garden Science Popularization Hall specially invited our garden horticultural centre engineer Jiao Peng to take everyone to stroll in the peony garden, admire the ‘King of Flowers’ charm and learn plant knowledge.”

Bujorul
Bujorul românesc este o specie de floare unică în Europa, care creşte doar în anumite zone din România. Floarea rară a supravieţuit erei glaciare şi este la fel de veche ca şi crocodilii. În ţară există cinci rezervaţii naturale de bujori româneşti, zone protejate prin lege de câţiva ani. Una dintre rezervaţii se găseşte în Pădurea de la Troianul. De numele bujorului românesc se leagă vechi legende şi superstiţii. Bujorul românesc este una dintre cele patru specii ierboase deosebit de frumoase de la noi din ţară. Coloritul este deosebit, aproape că nu poate fi reprodus pe pânză.
