The Chinese Dunce Cap is a perennial succulent plant that belongs to the plant family Crassulaceae, Genus Orostachys. These succulents are native to Japan, Mongolia and Northern China. They flourish in cold, mountainous regions and grow quickly in the spring, summer and autumn.

After some time, the rosettes make small pale yellow flowers with greenish bracts on spikes.      

This species has beautiful leaf shape and color, are easy to propagate and maintain, and has a certain ornamental value.

 

Care Tips

Light: It is very light-loving and best to have full sunlight during its growth period. In the summer, it is better to put it in a place with sufficient diffused light and sunlight in the morning and evening. And in winter, it is better to put it in a sunny balcony to avoid prolonged shade, otherwise it will easily lead to the excessive growth of the plant and affect its shape.

Water: It’s better to follow the method of watering only when it is dry and not dry, otherwise it will lead to waterlogging and rotten roots and rotten leaves if we are not careful. Therefore, in the summer, we should water 3-5 times a month but 2 times a month in other seasons.

Soil: They need to be drained well, but they’re able to adapt to both nutrient-rich and nutrient-poor soil. 

Potting: It is recommended to use ceramic pots. Ceramic pots have a certain degree of permeability. Clay pots lose water too quickly, and plastic pots tend to retain water for too long and permeability is poor.

Temperature: They are very sensitive to high temperature, so they need to be placed in a cool place that’s well ventilated in the summer. The suitable temperature for their growth is 15℃-25℃. The temperature in the winter should not be lower than 3℃ because at low temperatures, it’s easy for them to suffer frostbite and may even die.

Humidity: Chinese Dunce Cap grows well in average household humidity levels. It doesn’t like too much humidity.

    Care Instructions

    Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

    To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

    Make sure to leave drought periods between waterings to prevent the plant from water-logging.

      Lightweight and Breathable
      The standout feature of this kaftan is the cotton and linen blend fabric. This material choice gives the shirt a very light and breathable feel that is perfect for staying cool in warmer weather. It has a natural and slightly textured finish that feels soft against the skin. In terms of build, it features a button down Henley neck and side splits which provide a loose and non restrictive fit. It feels flowy and provides plenty of room for movement without feeling overly bulky. One downside is the lack of a size tag on the garment itself. While the fit feels right, it is a bit annoying not to have that permanent reference for laundry or future orders. For the price, this gown offers a great balance of comfort and style. The construction is solid for a lightweight garment. It is a reliable and easy going pick for anyone looking for a modern take on traditional attire. Just keep in mind that you might need to double check your order history if you forget which size you bought. Color is awesome and super accurate.

      Small arms and chest
      Color: Black, Size: Medium
      This was a really nice top, if you have a muscular build then definitely buy a size up, the chest and arms run small so it will be a bit tight in those areas. Also difficult to put on if you have a muscular build but definitely a nice comfortable top that looks good in its simplicity

      Great simple thobe for the holidays
      Color: Black, Size: X-Large
      I would say this is a very stylish thobe that I used for Eid. Its not that polyester feel so during hot weather it is very comfortable to wear especially if you roll up the sleeve. It also doesnt feel light either so it does have a noticeable weight to it so you might thing you will sweat in it, but I didnt and I wore a white t shirt under neath. The sizing is true to size. The color is a nice black and not faded even after multiple washes. The over quality and value for the money is a great so definitely a buy. I also like the little accents. Simple yet classy.
