According to Li Yunfeng, director of the Wetland Park Management Office, there are roughly 20,000 peonies of 108 kinds on the island, covering nearly 40 mu (2.67 hectares), with 10 percent currently in blossom. The peonies are expected to enter their full-blossom stage this weekend. Traffic control measures will be taken to handle the large number of tourists and vehicles.
