Colchicum hierosolymitanum

I remember when I worked for a retail nursery in Los Angeles. We would line
up the dry Colchicums and they would just start blooming on the shelf. Like
the "voodoo lilies". I think they were Sauromatum venosum.

We are all wondering what is the trigger for these Colchciums.
I could understand the ones I have growing outside like the ones
attached.

I think the white is C. cilicicum album with purple tips to the styles.
This was in the cool basement where temperature change very little and
there is no light to trigger it as well.
