Leaves are green and range from 5–15 cm long and 2–8 cm wide. Flowers stand on the top of stems.^[3] Each stem can hold a single solitary flower.^[3] Flowers are pink in colour^[1] and possess yellow anthers.

Paeonia coriacea is native to Spain and Morocco,^[4] where it can be found growing in Andalusia and in the Rif Mountains. It is often associated with woodland habitats consisting of mostly Quercus or Cedrus tree species. P. coriacea also has a preference for limestone areas^[3] where it sometimes nestles itself into crevices on rocky slopes.^[1] It is found at altitudes ranging from 600–2100 meters above sea level.^[3]
