Last week, the Emeryville Home Depot store (one of a large chain of
home-improvement stores) had a bunch of Ornithogalum plants with flowers
that look like your picture. They were labeled Ornothagolum 'Orange
star'(TM) and appear to have O. dubium as a parent.. The pot label says
"South African native prefers partial shade. Keep soil uniformly moist at
all times. After blooms fade, pick them off. The plant will continue to
make new flowers for several months."
