The purple-spotted peony is an endemic plant in China, with its root bark used for medicinal purposes. It is found in mountain forests and rock crevices, and is a precious floral germplasm resource. Efforts should be made to protect this species, as its distribution area is shrinking due to over-harvesting and weak natural reproduction. The plant has significant value for studying the phylogeny of the genus Peony and cultivating new peony varieties. Its ornamental value is also noteworthy, with diverse flower colors, types, and cultural associations that can be appreciated in gardens, as potted plants, and in floral arrangements.
