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.

      Be careful purchasing this.
      We bought this for an ice-cream maker - they never sent the initial startup you bought this email. So I had to fight with them that yeah we bought it. Then they classified it as an ice-maker - important for pictures later . Then we had bought the machine and insurance partially with gift cards not a big deal, right? - well, the machine cost $300ish but showed on the receipt total as $180ish - guess which amount they wanted to pay out for? Then they wanted pictures showing serial number and such on the machine. I sent them pictures of each side clearly showing no stickers. Take more pictures of the front and top because what you took wasn't good - MAYBE because you thought it was an ice-maker... Take a picture showing what doesn't work - it will spin and move, but the compressor broke so it won't get cold - NOT GETTING COLD is something I can't show... it was fun being told to take a video showing it not getting cold only to tell them yeah no I am not wasting my time doing that. There was a lot of repetitive stuff but they did eventually pay out the correct amount. Would I buy it again? Yes. Is it as easy as they make it out to be? No. Did I WANT to give this review? No, because I didn't want to leave a negative review. I am a very charming, nice, and personable guy that didn't want to be mean. Keep pestering me enough about leave a review about how great we are and you will get the review you probably did not want.

      You can trust ASURION warranties!
      ASURION was fantastic as always. Purchased a Nespresso machine for my DIL which she absolutely loved and two months before warranty expired it started leaking which broke her heart. ASURION stood behind their warranty and refunded purchase price which I transferred to my DIL so she could purchase another machine. That’s why I never hesitate to buy their warranty’s and why I love shopping Amazon! Both companies represent their clients well. Thanks to both!

      Quick,immediate action
      Very quick refund. I reported the issue, same day reply with instructions on how to return, free postage and as soon as Asurion was notified id dropped off at UPS, within the hour my refund was in my account. A pleasant experience as no waiting period, nothing. I’m able to replace product almost immediately. Thank you, I’ll be covering all my expensive items with this company. Five stars all around.

      Basic. Simple. Works.
      Size: Medium Capacity
      I've been wanting a toaster oven for simple stuff, like warming up frozen rolls, broiling an open faced sandwich, etc. Nothing fancy. Not looking to roast a chicken, bake a cake, etc. Just something for when a microwave won't do (you need crispy) and you don't want to heat up the whole kitchen by firing up a big oven (especially during the summer in Florida). This little appliance does the trick. Heats up instantly, no pre-heating. Melts the cheese on an open faced sandwich in just a couple of minutes. Has a crumb tray for easy clean up. The controls are super basic. I mostly use the toaster timer, which makes a hilariously retro ticking sound (apparently it uses an old-fashioned mechanical timer), and just watch through the glass window to see when things are done, since cook time is usually just a couple of minutes for what I'm doing. No digital displays or controls. Really basic. Which also means really inexpensive. Controls weren't immediately intuitive, but by "immediate" I mean that it took me all of a minute or two to figure out how to make the toaster oven do what I wanted. Simple. I already have a full-size oven for serious baking, so I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars and take up a lot of counter space for a fancy appliance. This simple, small, inexpensive toaster oven is just what I needed -- basically a horizontal, enclosed toaster, just like I remember from the good 'ol days.
