It was described in 2005. He described it's habitat in the Tiras Mountains in southwest Namibia growing with Daubenya comata and some species of Lachenalia and Ornithogalum. It is most closely related to Hessea (the flowers look like robust Hessea flowers). He also wrote detailed cultivation notes. Nhu -- http://www.flickr.com/photos/xerantheum/
