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.

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.

      My paper bowls of choice.
      Size: 50 Count
      I have been a return buyer of these bowls and amazon basics plates, as they are sturdy and well made, even for liquids. I think there is a generous quantity for the price. I use for my to go meals on the way to work, so I dont have my whole kitchen accumulating in my car. They are good sized and you can fit a decent serving. Will keep buying.

      Sturdy paper bowls, economical quantity purchase
      Size: 300 Count
      I previously bought 50 (?) of the paper plates to check the quality and see how well they hold up before making quantity purchases of other paper products. The bowls hold up well though I use them primarily for cut up avocados, sliced tomatoes, cole slaw, etc. I have used them in the microwave under 15 seconds to reheat toasted English muffins with marmalade with no problem. I use Pyrex glass bowls in the microwave for veggies and soups, so I am unable to speak on how well the bowls hold up with hot foods in the microwave. I resisted buying and using paper bowls and plates for a long time; however, with my 80th birthday fast approaching, the fewer dishes I have to wash means less time standing on my feet. I am an experienced shopper, and these quality paper products bought in bulk are the best buy I have found. I recommend them.
