Lovely, Hans.  I like the green and white combination.  From the side it reminds me of a Rhodophiala flower.
Cheers.

Hans,

I wasn't intending to imply that I thought it was a Rhodophiala, just that the flower reminded me of one (I like the form of Rhodophiala flowers).  I was most definitely not intending to question your Habranthus/Zephyranthes ID.  Sorry for the confusion.
Cheers.

That other one you posted last year is very spidery isn't it?  Unusually pointed petals.  Different, although I much prefer your new unknown from today. ;D

Thanks Hans and David. I am surprised too- normally it waits until September-last year it flowered at the end of August- this year now. It has been dry since spring  and came up on its own with no prompting.
