Calochortus tolmiei

**PRODUCT NOTE - These bulbs will be available (in packs of 3) when you pick-up your plants in October. They cannot be pre-ordered since we will not know the total quantity available until the bulbs are dug in September. So, cross your fingers the voles lay off 'em and be sure to look for them at check out in October!

This is hands-down, one of the most striking and unique flowers to incorporate into your wildflower beds! A perennial bulb known by several common names; Tolmie's mariposa lily, star tulip, cat’s ear, or pussytoes will dazzle your meadowscapes and perennial borders each spring with its furry, white to light purple petals and exaggerated green sepals.

  • Plant type/canopy layer: deciduous, perennial, herbaceous plant
  • Size at maturity: 4"-18" tall, 0-12” wide
  • Light requirements: full sun, part sun/part shade
  • Moisture requirements: dry soil, prefers well-drained
  • Bloom time: March - July 
  • Growth rate/ease: medium growth rate, easy to grow
  • Wildlife support: flowers attract and provide nectar for adult butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators; overall plant is likely a host and larval food source for native sphinx moths
  • Native habitat/range: found on dry open grassy slopes and woodland edges, from near sea level at the coast to mid elevations of the west-Cascades, across western portions of the Pacific Northwest. Portland Plant List - yes
  • Special features & uses: landscape uses include meadowscapes, pollinator gardens, rock gardens and woodland edges

Gardening with Tolmie’s Mariposa: Simply give this stunner full to part sun and sandy or loamy soils that are dry and well-drained soil.  and  Once established, the plant is drought tolerant and doesn't require any supplemental water to intensely beautify your wildflower meadowscapes and woodland borders. In fact, like most bulbs, once planted in the landscape, it needs to stay dry in the summer months and can easily rot if accidentally irrigated. Bulbs are also generally susceptible to predation from several types of small mammals but are so gorgeous that they are well-worth the risk! Plant in multiples to increase your chance of success. 

Planting Instructions:

  • Fall Bulbs - Plant bulbs in fall, about 5" deep and 6" apart with the pointed end up and the root fragments facing down. Cover with soil and water thoroughly. In the short term, consider placing a physical barrier (like a black plastic flat or the saucer for under a flowerpot) directly on top to deter small mammals from immediately digging it up. 
  • Spring Containers - Depending on the weather and the date of your order pick-up, bulbs may be just emerging or already dying back for the season. Bulbs can be fragile when they're actively growing in spring. So, either plant with care or keep it in its pot and wait until it dies back entirely before planting. By early summer, the plant will die back completely and the bulb will be easy to transplant. If you go this route, leave the pot in a sheltered place and water sparingly, so that you don't rot the bulb.

Takes a Licking and Keeps on Ticking
Color: Green/Black
I love this watch despite the fact that it is really a toy. I love the look of the watch, I love how lite the weight of the watch is on my wrist, and it really does keep good time if you manage the solar charge properly. Other than looking cool on your wrist, this watch has absolutely no functions other than time keeping. The black plastic bezel is molded into the case and does not turn, so don't plan on using that. The watch has no light, the dial numbers are non-luminous and the hands are very limited in terms of luminosity. No buttons. All you can do is adjust the time and date by pulling out what used to be a winding stem in the good old days. The small tag on the strap with Geographic coordinates shown on it indicate the location of the old Timex manufacturing facility (SW of Waterbury, CT). I have a nice ledge at my bedroom window and it gets good western sun for a good part of the day regardless of the time of year. On this ledge you will find a half dozen solar powered watches (mostly Casio) properly aligned to maximize the charge they may receive each day. Note that the description for this Timex watch specifically states that a lightbulb won't charge this watch. You need direct sunlight for several hours if you want to get more than a 3-week charge into this watch. So, I'll leave you with a couple of tips, my friends; 1.) If you are looking for a first watch to give your outdoorsy oriented Son or Daughter, then give them this one. Why? Because it is cool looking, fairly well built, and it actually works, 2.) After you receive your Timex watch, be sure to keep the display mount it is packaged with. It makes a great fixture to mount your watch on for charging and allows you to maximize the position of the solar cells on the dial so that you can optimize charging time. Have Fun! Jimmy

Excellent value, flawless performance for well over a year and no signs of quitting.
Color: Green/Black
Excellent value, had this for well over a year and it still keeps perfect time, still water resistant. No worries about having to change batteries. Owned a fancy expensive (battery) watch once and the dept. store repair intentionally sabotaged the watch in the hopes I would purchase another from them. Yeah, good luck with that, lost my business forever. This is the 21st century, cell phones are the new time pieces, but solar is totally reliable and Timex makes it happen. Holds a charge for many months, although I prop it in a bright window for a few days every few months or so just to make sure the cells are always fully charged, although it's probably unnecessary, just being over cautious. I haven't actually experienced this watch ever running out of power even after months of use. Damn impressive, as it should be.

Good value for solar watch
Color: Black/Orange
Nice watch! It is plastic like but it is solar. No indiglo button only a little luminous on the hands so you don't want to wear it in tje dark and expect to check the time. 45mm case is good size for my wrist and the band works good also, Not too long not too short. Overall a good watch with no problems

Do not buy
Color: Green/Black
Do not buy. When I received the watch it did not work and the battery was dead. I bought a new battery and it killed that one as well after about a month.
