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.

      Great size for tiny dogs!
      Color: Skull With Spiders, Color: Skull With Spiders
      We got this for our grand-dog, a tiny Havanese! It's a great size for her. It was challenging to find things she could carry around with her tiny mouth when she was a puppy and we liked the added bonus of her pulling them out of the skull. Another activity in her day.... It was the perfect seasonal item to add to the toy box. It's her favorite thing to carry around. The squeakers are still going strong. It got a little crusty after she played with them for a while, but they washed great! Still holding up! Would recommend.

      My little dog's favorite toy
      Color: Skull With Spiders
      These spiders are small and not for big dogs. But my little one loves them so much and it is hard to find good durable toys small enough for her. I love these spiders so much I wish I could buy just the spiders. the ones they sell alone are too big for her. If some one from the company could help a sister out on how to buy the spiders without the skull I would be for ever grateful.

      Small, below-average hide and seek-toy
      Color: Skull With Spiders
      This toy is not as large nor as well-made as the 6 other hide and seek-toys our dog has. The small size of the skull makes the dog disinterested in it. For the size, the price should be half what it is.
