I've got this plant as Cyrtanthus breviflorus. I am in doubt about this name. Is there anyone who can give me the right ID?

It looks more like C. mackenii or a related species. I don't have a key to the genus and cannot provide a better name.

Alessandro, I am most envious!  I am struggling to keep small seedlings of clavatus alive.  Do yours grow in summer or in winter?
