My apologies re the misspelling of Ornithogalum ... have not had my coffee yet 
this morning.

Thank you Dietrich, Dylan and all who responded ...  the consensus seems to be 
Ornithagolum.
It is still blooming and looking good.  Interestingly, the flowers only open on 
sunny days ... even
though the plant itself is kept shaded.  The foliage has declined and now all 
but
disappeared.  Here is a link to a shot of the open florets:
