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.

      Check your milk preference when buying this unit. Product Does not last
      Color: White
      I purchased this frother in mid Oct and less than 90 days later, it's no longer working. The wisk does not spin, and the element does not heat the milk. I am currently working with customer support on a refund / replacement, but so far not happy. I've been told it does not work with 2% organic milk and that I need to switch to whole milk, which will solve my issues. Not sure how whole milk will help with the heating element? This was not disclosed when I purchased the unit. If I had known my milk choice would impact the frother, I would have chosen another brand or product. I like the unit, it's compact, easy to clean, but it did not last.

      Works great and easy to use
      Color: Black
      I feel like I’ve finally found a decent milk frother! I’ve gone through (or returned) several models over the last few years, but this one has a different design and hasn’t frustrated me like the others. It has plenty of power to froth milk, foam quality is good, heating is good. I checked the temperature a few times, since a few reviews were critical of that, and it was within a degree or two of what I’d set, so I’d say it’s good! I appreciate that it remembers the last settings so most days are a 1-click operation. But even changing the settings is easy - easier than others I’ve used while having more options.

      Best addition to our coffee bar
      Color: Black
      BEST milk frother we've owned. It is on the larger size but worth it. I love that there are multiple temperature settings. It is easy to use and figure out. The frother spins inside of the stainless steel cup and is magnetically attached inside so it does not come off easily. We use agave for sweetener and being able to throw the cup into the dishwasher to clean off residue has been the biggest plus of this frother. Highly recommend. Worth the cost.

      Cute, functional, works great!
      I LOVE this thing!! It froths the half and half for my coffee and cream for my tea so beautifully. It's fast, and easy to use and clean. Really adds to my morning routine to be able to choose a temperature and froth level to my coffee creamer. The color is so pretty and both it and the style fit right in with my kitchen decor. I've been using it for several months and haven't had any issues to far. Great item! I was afraid it would just be more clutter and gadgets I didn't need taking up counter space, but it fits right in next to my coffee maker, and I truly do use it every morning. It makes my coffee even more enjoyable, believe it or not. Love it!!

      Solid purchase
      Color: White, Color: White
      I have used it often, basically daily. I love how it has a magnet stirrer and therefore is quiet. I like the stainless steel aspect. It does heat up well. It can store two regular mugs of beverage or maybe 3-4 mugs of froth. It is lightweight but doesn’t feel cheaply made- good enough quality. The froth is great- I have no complaints. I had to learn the hard way that non-homogenized milk gets grainy- weird and icky. I wish it was a little more frothy on the matcha side of things but I still use it. Also, I wish for things like hot chocolate that it got hotter. It goes to 160 on the machine but it doesn’t feel that hot when you drink it. I haven’t measured the temperature of the drink yet but it isn’t hot hot.
