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.

      18 months and going strong
      Style: ET-5150, Set: ET PRO FAX/ADF/PRINT/COPY/SCAN, Style: ET-5150, Set: ET PRO FAX/ADF/PRINT/COPY/SCAN
      Edit 1/18/26: 2 years in, and I just topped off the ink. I used the extra bottle of black that came with it, and bought a set of color ink for the first time. Love it. Original: I’ve had this printer for 18 months and love it. I haven’t even had to refill the ink yet! I print a fair amount, not constantly, but I homeschool and print things for church and scouts also. I’m able to connect easily from my Windows laptop, Mac desktop, and iPhone. Automatic double sided printing is great. Color printing is good quality. Printing on card stock can get jammed, but there’s a rear bypass for that. It’s annoying that you have to do a single sheet at a time, but oh well. Copying and scanning is handy.

      The Perfect Printer
      Style: ET-5150, Set: ET PRO FAX/ADF/PRINT/COPY/SCAN
      This is the perfect printer! I love the paper loading tray that holds a ton of paper, and the sophisticated scanning hinge AND THE TOUCHSCREEN! Other printer's I have owned have had the weirdest buttons, but this is so clear and easy to use. We were replacing a broken black and white printer and upgraded to a color printer. We had an eco tank before (LOVE THEM!) so we knew we wanted an eco tank printer again. Honestly I cannot find a single downside of this printer. For Mac users, know that the CD that comes with it is unnecessary :) Just go online per the instructions to grab the Epson software and you'll be set! Full context: My husband and I are small business owners and we love having an in-home printer!

      Great Investment Printer
      Style: ET-5850, Set: FAX/Print/Copy/Scan
      This is a great overall printer, especially for a home office or small business setup. It prints quickly, handles everyday documents with ease, and the EcoTank system is very convenient and cost-effective over time. Honestly, it could even hold its own in a regular office environment because of how efficient and fast it is. It is also easy to connect to from a phone, laptop or computer. It was compatible with all the devices and computers in my household, even those with Windows 10. That said, if your main goal is printing high-quality photos, this wouldn’t be the best option Epson offers. Photo quality is decent, but not exceptional. If photo printing is important to you, I would recommend looking into the Epson 8550 instead. Overall, a solid, reliable printer for everyday use—just not the top choice for photo-focused needs.

      Excellent Epson, worth the investment!
      Style: ET-5800, Set: FAX/Print/Copy/Scan
      First, this is a big printer so double check the measurement specs before purchasing if space is an issue. First impressions: very well built, especially comparing to ET versions such as the ET-4800 ( see my review on that one for details). This is a sturdy printer, you can feel it when you lift the scanning bed, pull out the paper trays, etc. Printing quality: excellent right out of the box. I didn’t need to do an extensive alignment or cleaning during setup, everything printed perfectly and was photo quality. Setup was easy. Although it has a fax feature, I don’t use that so I didn’t need to set it up. Printing: using the rear paper trays, it prints on 100lb card stock very easily. I recommend only loading a few pages at a time to avoid any issues. I loaded 5 pages and made prints without any issues. 65 lb card stock was also easy to print on using the back paper feed tray and I loaded 8 sheets without an issue but know it could probably handle a few more. Just remember that the thicker the paper the more chance of having it jam with multiple sheets in the rear paper try. AND, only use the rear tray feed for cardstock or other thick paper. The actual paper tray drawers, there are two and you can set them up for different sizes and types of paper, very convenient. Now the cool detail: most printers have a flimsy plastic slide tray to catch the prints as they come out of the printer. Not this one. This has a really amazing tray catch that comes out of the printer automatically (it is motorized), and when you are done there is a little illuminated icon on the screen that looks like the printer, you press it and the tray retracts. Pretty cool detail. The screen: very easy to use and you can actually see it, unlike the postage stamp size screen they used in the ET-4800. All features are very easy to find and select and the icons are illuminated. Using this screen, setup was very easy. Ink: again a very good feature and very well thought out. The bottles are keyed so they fit in the receptacle. Simply unscrew the cap, tip them over (they won’t spill or leak) and place them in the correct color, the bottles automatically fill the tank. When done filling, remove the bottle and put the cap back on, again they won’t spill or leak because they have a mechanism that prevents it from doing so. Overall: excellent printer, expensive but over time the ink savings alone help ease the sticker price. It is heavy and sturdy, has wireless capability so you can put it anywhere and print with ease connected to your wireless network, has the ability to print from android and IPhone with an app, and it has amazing prints. This is one printer I highly recommend.

      No more expensive ink cartridges
      Style: ET-5800, Set: FAX/Print/Copy/Scan
      Great printer. I am sick and tired of HP giving me problems with their ink cartridges. I discarded my HP office Jet and replaced it with this Epson printer. Easy to set up. Came with two sets of ink bottles. Easy and clean to fill tanks with ink. The screen on my old HP Office Jet printer was so small and difficult to use. This Epson printer has a very large LCD screen which can tilt if you want and very easy to use. Separate paper trays for letter and legal or other sizes. Print, scan and fax. Connect via cable or WiFi. I wish I had purchased this sooner.
