: Article 5 of the Regulations of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of wild plants points out that the State encourages and supports scientific research on wild plants and on-site protection and ex-situ protection of wild plants. There are three wild peony introduction and domestication bases in China, including Lanzhou Yuzhong, Gansu Forestry Science and Technology Extension Station, and the Ex-situ Conservation Centre of Chinese <i>Paeoniceae</i> Wild Species built by our research group in Luanchuan County, Henan Province, China, which collected all wild tree peony species and part of the herbaceous peony group. We have obtained the support of the local Forestry Bureau of Luanchuan County and signed the project application for the cultivation of new tree peony varieties. The project number is 2014hhlm012.
