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.

      No customer service for product under warranty
      Color: Beige
      loved this umbrella for the 4 months we used it. did a lot of research to find an umbrella that would stand up to New England "breezes" -- this one was advertised as wind resistant; bought in June 2025, seemed very sturdy, really nice-looking, used on our patio (installed in the base the recommended base) through the summer; stored indoors for the winter; brought back onto patio a couple weeks ago. On a day with average wind a couple weeks ago, the tilt mechanism broke. Umbrella did not fall over, a gust of wind just forced the tilt mechanism to snap. Spent a lot of time trying to fix it, but it's permanently broken. It's less than a year old so still under warranty, as stated in the materials they sent with the umbrella. Same materials list the email to contact if there are any problems with the product. Have emailed the company, twice now, asking for a refund or replacement. Radio silence. Don't buy this unless you're ok with throwing it away after four or five months of use and being ignored by customer service.

      Third time in 10 years nerding out on an Amazon patio umbrella on a budget...
      Color: Navy Blue, Color: Navy Blue
      Color: Beautiful, but the fabric is thinner than other options that are only ~$10 more. Tilt mechanism: Major reason for my 3:5 stars. It's plastic with a metal fastener through the middle. We won't be tilting this umbrella in any wind gust situations over 5mph. The warnings on the stickers and in the instructions make it clear this is a limitation, but it's not mentioned in the listing details. Quality | Value for money: Overall very mid. This is a nice 3-tiered umbrella at a near rock-bottom budget price for that class. I have found other mystery brand umbrellas on Amazon that have lasted for 5+ years, albeit with some (in my opinion) acceptable fading and rust. This umbrella leans hard into plastic everywhere except the fasteners. The ribs and pole are almost as thin as a few layers of beer cans pressed together. At least at the 10' and up diameter, this umbrella requires you to install equally flimsy-feeling extensions in order to get to 10', full sail. Final thoughts: This time around I chose price + delivery speed over quality, and I have a hunch I will be getting what I paid for. I doubt this umbrella lasts for more than 2 to 3 years without UV treatments and a very solid, heavy base.

      Excellent Value.
      Color: Forest Green, Color: Forest Green
      Excellent value. Well made. Assembles in a few minutes. Note that the tilt control is the single click type. You push a button on the support column and tilt the umbrella until it picks in place. Venting design is helpful in keeping umbrella from tipping over in moderate wind. Fabric is a light synthetic. We chose green which we like.

      Love this umbrella!
      Color: Lake Blue, Color: Lake Blue
      I totally love my umbrella. The 10 foot size is perfect for the coverage I needed. The assembly was super easy. The Lake Blue color is more beautiful than the pictures displayed. UV coating is exactly what I need, after having skin cancer. It's also stable in light to moderate wind, thanks to the slits in each tiered layer, allowing wind to pass through. I've only had this umbrella a week, but am impressed at this point. It's much more cost effective than having either an awning or roof extension over my patio. $90 vs $8-20k! Highly recommended.

      Really Nice Hydrating Toner Pads
      Scent: Collagen, Scent: Collagen
      At 52, post-menopausal, with dry and increasingly sensitive skin, I’m very selective about toner pads. Many of them either feel too thin and ineffective or too active and irritating. These landed right in the middle in the best possible way — gentle, hydrating, and very easy to use. The first thing I noticed is how well these pads are saturated. They’re not dripping, but they hold enough product to comfortably treat the entire face. The gel texture also makes them feel a little more substantial than typical toner pads, which I really like. They feel cooling and comfortable on the skin. What I notice most after using them is how hydrated and slightly plumped my skin looks. This isn’t dramatic or instant, but it’s the kind of improvement that makes your skin look healthier and more comfortable. My skin feels smoother and softer, and it layers very well with the rest of my routine. They also feel very lightweight. There’s no sticky or heavy residue, and once the essence absorbs, my skin just feels hydrated and calm. I can easily follow with serums and moisturizer without any pilling. I also appreciate that these pads are gentle and very skin-compatible. I’ve had no irritation, redness, or sensitivity, even on days when my skin is feeling more reactive. At this stage, that matters more than aggressive results. In terms of moisture, these do a really nice job. My skin feels comfortable after using them, and they work well as a prep step before the rest of my routine. On some mornings, they even give enough hydration that I don’t feel rushed to apply moisturizer immediately. Fragrance is also worth mentioning. The scent is very light and subtle, and it doesn’t linger. I’m careful about fragrance, and these didn’t cause any sensitivity or irritation. Another thing I like is how easy they are to use. They’re quick, convenient, and a nice step when I want hydration without adding another liquid toner. Overall, these feel like a supportive, hydrating step that helps improve overall skin quality over time. They’re gentle, comfortable, and easy to incorporate into a daily routine.
