Peony has several alternate definitions. Firstly it is a flower name. Peonies are gorgeous fragrant flowers which blossom in late spring and occasionally in early summer. They are found flourishing in select areas of Asia, North America and Europe. Their buds are circular and then open up to reveal the flower which is about 3-4 times bigger than the bud. Peonies can be found in delicate shades of pink and white. Under normal weather conditions these beautiful flowers usually last anywhere between 5 to 10 days.

Peony may also mean a somewhat symmetrical break of stars that do not have trails. They usually fly outwards and then start to droop.

In China however a peony has an altogether different meaning. In this context a peony denotes some form of love symbol which is also considered to be a harbinger of spring and good luck in the cycle of the four seasons.
