I drag mine inside just before night temps go in the 30's, cram it into a corner of the living room, stop watering, and wait 2 months for the leaves to die down. Then I wait another 2 months to allow the rest of the soil to dry out, after which I unpot, check the tuber(s), and then hang them in an open plastic shopping bag from a nail on my basement ceiling rafters until I see shoots poking out in late May/ early June.

From: Noel Crisler <ncrisler@cox.net> should A. Paeonifolius , after dying down, stay in the pot? ---------- Well, I'm no expert, but have kept mine in it's pot - allowed to go totally dry; kept inside in normal room temps until spring, when I repot into a larger pot with fresh media as signs of new growth become evident. This seems to have worked fine for the 3 years I've had it.
