@TwoRivers . Good morning !
In the second photograph,
second flower up from the bottom shown flower,
left–most tepal,
i see what looks like two separated white nectaries ? Is this visual interpretation correct please?
Any more photographs please?
I'm looking for clearer vision of these white nectaries .
If not two separated nectaries per tepal,
rather "Tepals usually with 1 nectary or with apparently 2 nectaries comprising a transverse band with a relatively narrow gap at midline of tepal",
then likely _Wurmbea latifolia_ .

Will shortly add the last photos I have but I'm afraid they are not much closer but are from a different angle. Maybe that will help.
