You can sow the seeds but you might not get exactly the same
type of flower and fragrance. It would be like any seed sowing. The
Chinese and Japanese take a root of a herbaceous peony and graft a
branch of the wanted tree peony on it. I'm not sure exactly how the
process is done, but when I have planted the Tree peonies I have
growing now at my farm home in Pennsylvania, I have seen these grafts
covered with wax. When you plant the tree peony you bury the graft a
few inches (3-4in 8-10cm) under the ground so the tree peony
eventually grows it's own roots. I hope this information helps you.
You might be able to contact an European nurseryman who sells tree
peonies and reieve more information.
