Dave i think your plant is Solaria miersioides another south american genus.http://www.chileflora.com/Florachilena/FloraEnglish/HighResPages/EH2200.htm

Dave, Chilean bulbs are incredibly difficult to grow. ANY of them reaching flowering size is a real achievement. Congratulations. Yes, it is Solaria miersioides.

Well done Dave. It may be small but I think it is very sweet.

I've changed the name of this thread to reflect the plant name.

Maybe the pics give you that impression Lesley  --I'm taking it to our local alpine plant show this Friday however as i said I'm not expecting it to win .........

Hopefully it's not beginners luck Alberto as i have a couple of Solenomelus sps and Gethyum atropurpureum nearly at flowering size 

I've bookmarked your Chileflora link Davey-- (ps good seed seems to be setting on the Geissy.)

Cheers Dave.
