The Balkan, Wild or Male peony (''Paeonia mascula'', synonym ''Paeonia corallina'') is a species of peony. A herbaceous perennial plant 0.5–1.5 metres tall, the Wild Peony has leaves which are divided into three segments and large red flowers in late spring and early summer. Native to China, Italy, Morocco, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon and Israel〔 this wild peony has become naturalised on two small islands in the UK. ==Location==
Wild peonies are at risk in their natural environment due to the demand from private collectors and there is a significant trade in wild Peonia mascula from Turkey.〔.〕 Ideal conditions are light (sandy) soils although and most peonies can grow in heavy clay soil. The Wild Peony prefers acid and neutral soils, can grow in semi-shade and tolerates drought.〔 The Wild Peony was introduced to the island of Steep Holm in the Bristol Channel, possibly by monks.〔(The Peony Society: Steep Holm )〕 37 plants were taken to nearby Flat Holm island by Frank Harris, the farmer at the time, in the 1930s, many of which died during the World War II occupation and fortification of the island. One remaining plant was reintroduced by the Flat Holm Warden in 1982 and is protected by fencing near the path to the lighthouse. A few plants grown from seed also survive in the farmhouse garden.〔Cardiff Council Flat Holm Project records accessed 2008-05-08〕
