Doronicum austriacum, the Austrian leopard's bane, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae.[2] It is native to Europe and Turkey, and prefers to grow in beech and spruce forests.[1][3] A clumping perennial reaching 120 cm (47 in), it is available from commercial suppliers, with the Royal Horticultural Society considering it to be a good plant to attract pollinators.[2]
