Doronicum pardalianches is a perennial of the northeastern Iberian Peninsula and Central Europe. It grows to 1.5 m by 1 m at a fast rate and has the potential to be a garden escapee. In Europe, its natural habitat is disturbed areas, meadows and fields.
The 30–60 mm flower head has tubular disk flowers in the centre and yellow ray flowers, these often strap-shaped, around the periphery.
In New Zealand, it flowers from October through summer. The flowers are hermaphrodite (have both male and female organs) and are pollinated by flies, beetles, Lepidoptera.
The leaves (60–190 mm in length) are basal and alternate on the stem.
