MARIPOSA TULIPS 
Calochortus 
Mariposa means butterfly in Spanish, and 
is applied to these tulips because the eyes 
and markings on the gorgeously colored 
flowers are so much like those on the wings 
of a butterfly. Flowers are cup-shaped and 
of wonderful colors, many marked with dots 
and pencilings. They are borne one or more 
to a stem during May and June. Bulbs 
should be planted 2% to 3 in. deep and 3 to 
6 in. apart in full sun or partial shade. In 
cold sections, provide winter protection 
after the ground has become frozen.
