Calochortus eurycarpus - big-pod mariposa lily Big-pod mariposa lily growing in the Boise Foothills just west of Five Mile Creek and just north of Cottonwood Creek and E Shaw Mountain Road, Ada County, Idaho. The Wyoming big sagebrush steppe in this area is mostly perturbed because of somewhat recent history of fire and overgrazing. Regardless, big-pod mariposa lily is common at this site.
