Could it be a form of R. bulbocodium var. leichtlinii?

I'll get a image of the entire plant.

I have some supplemental light which may account for the compact growth.

A Babiana villosa has opened:

663237-0

And here it is again, along with Geissorhiza splendidissima and the Romulea which is probably R. flava:

663239-1

First something doing nicely..... Gladiolus venustus:

664171-0

664173-1

Then a few questions!

1) Does anyone know why a Moraea ochroleuca would produce plenty of buds which then just sit there sulking like this?

664175-2

2) Does anyone know why a Moraea gigandra would open flowers but have them fail to open out flat properly, like this (this it's second day "open")?

664177-3

664179-4
