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. 

They form open rosettes of lavender-gray leaves that can grow to a diameter of 2 inches. The rosettes produce tiny plantlets on thin stems that spread out up to 6 inches away from them to form a clump. 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.

      Foams well, smells good, rinses off nicely, perfect!
      Scent: Eucalyptus, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
      Oh five stars easily! I bought some other brand, starts with an M, but no foam! Nothing! Then I ordered this one hoping it would at the very least be foamy. It is, and it smells wonderful, and it cleans hands perfectly. It also rinses off well. FIVE STAR! I will be buying all of these! The lavender is probably my favorite scent, The Satsuma & Eucalyptus is excellent too, and I will be ordered others when they are available.

      Cleans without any harsh fragrance or residue
      Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
      I got tired of other overly-scented hand soaps and decided to give this a try. It works well for a quick wash after using the toilet and when you're hands are really dirty. It rinses off easily and quickly. While it's unscented, it does have a smell - it's hard to describe, sort of like a bleach-clean scent but, it definitely does NOT smell like bleach. It just smells "clean." Since it's in the bathroom, it also gets used to clean up some other adult things. Since it isn't scented and doesn't leave any residue it's perfect for things that are in close contact with sensitive areas.

      Must Use FOAMING SOAP BOTTLE for this soap & you will Love it!
      Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
      I have been using this soap refill for years and love it. I also use the scented versions when this is out of stock and they are not very strong scent. But if you prefer no fragrance, then this is a great soap. Many reviewers are complaining it is watery and thin. YES, IT IS. It is SUPPOSED to be. If you don't know how foaming soap works, you do need a couple pumps of foaming soap but you are using a fraction of the amount of soap you would use (aka WASTE) with standard soap. Have you ever seen your kid pump soap in the bathroom? Not once, or twice, but three or four times? Well, they can do that with this soap and not waste it because it's half air in each pump. It's SUPPOSED to be for foaming hand soap. Don't get fooled by your costly regular or foaming soap. Buy this and have clean hands and SAVE money! My family has very sensitive skin and nobody gets rough, red hands from this soap. No problems. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE FOAMING SOAP DISPENSERS FOR THIS PRODUCT: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PVFXSVC/ref=sbl_dpx_bath-accessories-countertop-soap-dispensers_B07Z8J57J7_0?th=1 UPDATE ON REVIEW (August 2020): I recently just ordered this item and it was delivered with new packaging. I thought it was the same product, but it seems to have additional ingredients now including alcohol. Hm. Need to look closer into this and will update when figure out what has changed. UPDATE ON INGREDIENTS (October 2020): The new formula is now showing the ingredients. It has changed. A lot. One ingredient that was removed is PHENOXYETHANOL which is GREAT they removed that! However, if they only removed that, then this would be an amazingly safe hand soap (by EWG standards it would be golden). However, it is a completely different soap with a completely different list of ingredients. I will wait until the EWG rates these ingredients before continuing to purchase this. As other reviewers have noted, it does now have "fragrance" in the ingredients - and misleadingly states "(natural)" next to the word fragrance, which means absolutely nothing in terms of what is allowed and what is not. Do your research on what the word "fragrance" means on labels and what could possibly be in your product under that ingredient. In addition it now does have alcohol in it, which some may like, however I don't think soap needs it. If you are washing, you don't need to sanitize anything. It's overkill ingredient - not needed and dries your hands out.
