This little, carefree plant comes up each spring. Unfortunately, I've lost the tag with the name. I do know it's not a Texas native, possibly from Africa? It is not a crocosmia. Hoping someone will recognize it.
Thanks for your help.

Anomatheca is a synonym of Freesia, so this is now Freesia laxa.
