In Chinese mythology, peony-inspired flower fairies, celebrated for their "national beauty and heavenly fragrance," embody grace and opulence, marking the peony's profound bond with Chinese civilization. Through millennia of cultivation, this floral symbol of oriental aesthetics has evolved into over a thousand precious varieties. Nine color palettes blend harmoniously: crimson like the sunrise over red cliffs, purple as twilight frost, green akin to misted spring waters, while rare bi-color blooms resemble strokes from a master painter. The Zhuangyuanhong (top scholar red) echoes imperial court robes, symbolizing academic triumph; Erqiao (two Qiao sisters) dazzles with dual hues, mirroring legendary beauties; and Dou Lyu (bean green), crowned "queen of green peonies," showcases jade-like petals honed by horticultural artistry and time. Their timeless oriental legacy unfolds, sharing China's philosophy of beauty and life wisdom with the world through unique cultural charm.
