Here's a bulb I received from a bulb swap a few years ago, pretty sure it's Habranthus robustus. It has a similar habit to Zephranthes (although larger in stature), in the way they burst into bloom when watered after a dry period.

Not sure what these are. I had thought they were a species of Habranthus, but I haven't found a match in my searching.
