Ornithogalum thyrsoides(?)

What's the common tenderish Ornithogalum sold in garden centers?

I have it labelled as O. thyrsoides, but could it be O. arabicum?

My bulbs have never flowered, but rescued from the garden, potted in
a very open mix, and kept out of doors, they are starting to grow
with the advent of cooler weather. I am cautiously optimistic that I
may be able to bring them to flowering.
