made a quick trip up to UC Irvine (Orange County) this morning to check for any South African bulbs blooming in their collection.  The spring bloom is fantastic, but these fall bloomers add some later-season interest.  Brunsvigia litoralis, Drimia (Urginea) maritima and a nice white xAmarygia:

the bud on a Brunsvigia josephinae scape is just breaking ... probably peak next weekend.
