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.

Exactly what I needed for my bathroom refresh.
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches, Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches
I bought these floating shelves in the color Rustic Brown to replace a bulky storage shelf that was making my bathroom feel cramped, and they completely transformed the space. The wood finish looks much more expensive than I expected, and once installed they gave the bathroom a clean, modern, spa-like feel without taking up visual space. Installation was straightforward overall. I mounted one screw in the center into a stud and used drywall anchors for the remaining hardware, and the shelves feel very sturdy. They sit flush against the wall and don’t sag or wobble. I especially love how slim they are while still being deep enough to hold everyday bathroom items, decor, candles, skincare, and small baskets. The color worked perfectly with my bathroom vanity and mirror trim, and the floating design instantly made the room look more organized and intentional. Huge upgrade for a small space. Definitely recommend if you want functional storage that also looks elevated and minimalist.

Good Shelves
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 22.5inches
These shelves are really nice quality and look as advertised. The hardware included was great quality, metal drywall anchors and good screws. They were easy to install, and make even/level with each other. My only gripe is the price, but I'm very satisfied with the product overall.

Attractive, easy to install, nicely equipped hardware package.
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches
These are pretty doggone nice shelves and I appreciate the fact that they are not made of solid particle board. Yes they are made of an engineered product, but they are lightweight and strong…and look better than particle board products and more costly than their actual price. Easy installation system with the bracket…not fussy like some are. An especially thoughtful touch is the variety of hardware that is included. Also a tiny level for use when installing them. What? …So they can be installed correctly? I was pleasantly surprised by this inclusion.
