Schizobasis intricata

Dear Friends,
I confess a mini-obsession - let's call it 'fascination' with
succulent plants. I was at the local Cactus and Succulent show to
enjoy the variety* when I saw a new plant (many actually). This plant
is Schizobasis intricata a bulbous Liliaceae superficially similar
to the common Boweia volubilis, but 'more so'.
Does any know or grow this plant? Is it difficult to
cultivate? The annual herbaceous growth is even more finely divided
than in Boweia and it seems to bloom easily with tiny white flowers.
Appreciate any thoughts. Jim W.
* Confession I bought two small Adenium obesum cvs, but wanted more. Oh well .
