They will not reward you.

Tree peonies have been in culture in China for millennia, and it is likely that hybrids came into being in gardens where different wild tree peony species were planted closely together. Peonies are used in China both for medicine and as a time-honored ornamental and are called 牡丹 (mu dan) in China. Korea and Japan also have tree peonies featured in their ancient art and medicine and have been growing and improving peonies for centuries.
