Zephyranthes drummondii

It has taken some years to have enough of an increase in these bulbs to
become a patch of flowers. Then a couple of nights ago I happened to go
past them after dark. It was a wind-still evening and the scent from
the Z. drummondii was just amazing. And the white of the flowers almost
glowed in the dark.
It was the first time I had that experience since planting the seed in
2008. And the scent was still there the following morning. Now I see
what is meant by them being night flowering. As the flowers are open
during day and night for some days, it had not been so noticeable.
