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.

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.

      Returned
      Size: 8, Color: Spiced Nutmeg Cs Wc
      The suede and color were great but the boot didn’t fit. The calf fit was way too big and the toe was so pointy it felt and looked weird to me - made my foot feel cramped and looked like I was wearing two sizes bigger. The heel was nice though.

      A beautiful dress
      Size: Medium, Color: Red Rose Floral
      Why did you pick this product vs others?: I absolutely love this dress. It is the first item of clothing I have purchased from Amazon that I haven't had to send back. The sizing is spot on. This dress is indeed 100% linen. The workmanship is great. It is truly a beautiful dress and it brought me many compliments.

      Beautiful & comfortable summer dress
      Size: XX-Large, Color: Whisper White/Black Polka Dot
      Beautiful summer dress! I’m very busty, so I really appreciate the stretchy material on the back. The shoulder straps are adjustable, with a button cleverly hidden on the inside where they attach, and the side zipper is perfect. It keeps my bust from straining the dress when i’m putting it on. The pockets are definitely a bonus! The fabric is a bit light, but it has an underlining that doesn’t affect the fit. I don’t see a tag besides the size label, but it feels like cotton. I love it and think it’s worth the price. Hopefully, it stays just as nice after washing. I plan on buying the black one too.
