Calochortus luteus


Hi all!  I just bought a pot of blooming Calochortus luteus (mariposa lily)
from a nearby nursery -- at least I THINK it's Calochortus luteus, it had
no label, but from the photos I've seen on-line, I'm sure it is a
Calochortus and luteus looks most like it.  Anyway, it is in bloom right
now (and startingly beautiful I might add), and I wonder if I should plant
it out now or wait until it goes dormant.  What do you all think?  And what
kinds of culture conditions does it need?  Can i plant it and leave it to
its own devices as I do my other native plants?
