Lisa,
The names in this genus of charming dwarf bulbs are still somewhat confused,
at least among growers. Your plant looks to be P. pygmaea, which I had also
long grown as P. ensfolia. It is one of the best polyxenas for show and
fragrance. The following is a page from Terry Smale's site, referenced on
PBS under sources:
