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.

After some time, the rosettes make small pale yellow flowers with greenish bracts on spikes.

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.

      Good Value for a Tall Chair
      Size: 934W-Z, Color: White
      I have received this chair just today and would like to give my first impressions of it. Height is super adjustable as well as the foot rest. My desk is very tall (~34 inches vs standard ~29 inches) and does not suit a standard height chair. This chair's height is enough to sit comfortably at mybut also still having adjustment to be even higher. Lumbar support is a manual adjustment that can be adjusted by sliding the lumbar piece up or down and it seems it can be tiled as well. No reclining feature or slight backrest tilt adjustment. I'm used to my chairs reclining so it feels a little awkward siting in a flat base and straight backrest. I feel like I'm sitting too forward or leaning forward slightly but is probably something I can get use to. Easy to put together and feels very sturdy. Plastic parts of chair are made from a really sturdy plastic, like playhouse plastic materials. Wheels roll around carpet easily. Mesh seems to be a strong material, though the mesh feels kind itchy on bare skin. Overall, I think this is a good chair to get if you're needing a tall chair for a good value and can sacrifice no backrest tilt.

      Excellent value for money!
      Size: 934W-Z, Color: Black, Size: 934W-Z, Color: Black
      I absolutely love this office chair! I needed a chair that could support my standing desk without sacrificing comfort, and this one completely exceeded my expectations. It's incredibly sturdy and durable, well-made, and the height adjustment is super convenient, making it easy to find the perfect fit. Even during long hours of work, the seat is comfortable, and the ergonomic design effectively reduces pressure on my back and legs. I love its clean, modern look—it fits my home office perfectly. Assembly was quick and easy, and for this price, the quality is absolutely fantastic!

      Perfect chair!
      Size: 934-Z, Color: Blue, Size: 934-Z, Color: Blue
      I have an adjustable-height desk (also purchased from Amazon) and needed a drafting chair for those times when my body gets tired of standing. This chair fits the bill and then some! I put it together myself; it took me about an hour, but would take me about half that next time, since now I know what to do (and what NOT to do!). All the parts were there; there are even spare parts (see photo). All the holes were drilled in exactly the right places, too, which isn't always the case when I buy things from Amazon (my standing desk is a great example). The chair fits me; I'm short (5'3.5"), and often the seats of furniture are too deep for me to rest my feet flat on the floor. The depth of the seat on this chair is just a little over 18 inches, and with the adjustable footrest ring, it's perfect. I don't think a tall or heavy person would fit in it, to be honest. But it's perfect for those of us who are vertically challenged. I love that it glides easily on my hardwood floors and that it turns 360 degrees. The chair comes in numerous luscious colors, so take your pick! It is very sturdy, has good lumbar support, and the seat and seat back are very comfortable. And the arms flip up, which was an absolute must when I was shopping for this chair. I got it on sale, too -- $109.00 -- and I'm delighted with this purchase.

      Excellent chair design, extremely comfortable and exceptionally easy instructions to follow making for simple assembly. Love the amply wide cushioned seat and ergonomic backrest. The height adjustment feature works perfectly as well as positioning of the foot ring . Having the ability to raise the arms is also a big plus! I highly recommend this product for attractive appearance, comfort features, functionality and operation. Really nice chair!

      Comfortable, stylish, and perfect for long work hours 💗✨
      Size: 934-Z, Color: Pink
      I bought this chair because I spend a lot of time working and needed something comfortable but also stylish, and I absolutely love it. Since I started using it, I feel much better support in my back thanks to the lumbar support. It makes a big difference, especially during long work hours. The adjustable footrest is also a feature I didn’t know I needed, but now I use it all the time. The flip-up armrests are very convenient because I can adjust them depending on what I’m doing or move them out of the way when needed. The pink color is beautiful and adds a soft, elegant touch to my workspace. It looks great in a modern home office. It feels sturdy, well-made, and very stable. Overall, it’s a great purchase that improved both my comfort and the look of my workspace.
