Dear Joe, I've been meaning to post this very ID question on the forum!  Mine was purchased as "Ixia monadelpha" from Suncrest Nurseries (wholesale) in Watsonville, California, through a retail nursery I work for, about 10 years ago.  I haven't done any research yet on whether that is correct, or even a valid name.  It seeds around pleasantly, and for me, varies from white to mauve to blue-lavender, with a darker center - quite lovely.

All the best,
Kristin Jakob,
Mill Valley, Marin County (just north of San Francisco), California
