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.

      Beautiful!
      Size: 8, Color: Haze Blue, Size: 8, Color: Haze Blue
      My daughter got engaged in these shoes and walked all around Paris in them the day of. In all of her engagement photos the first thing everyone notices is her shoes! They are a beautiful powder blue and matched her dress perfectly. She reports they are comfortable and fit true to size. She even purchased another dress when we returned to match them just so she’d have more opportunities to wear them. I can’t imagine anyone would be disappointed in these.

      SIZE UP IF YOU ARE A HALF SIZE!
      Size: 8, Color: Black
      If you are a half size DEFINITELY size up! I am a 7-7.5, but in heels I’m usually a 7.5. I ordered an 8 and it fits perfectly!! They are super super cute but surprisingly not as comfortable as I thought considering it’s a pretty small heel. It’s not unbearable but I would keep that in mind if you’re planning to wear them standing for a long period of time. I didn’t see many reviews about people with half sizes except one and I listened to that one review and I’m very thankful I did. So PLEASE size up half a size.
