Its not hardy here in NY and prone to rot in cool wet weather.  Easy to lift though and usually carried by Brent and Becky's among other suppliers of spring bulbs.  I just got some from there half price sale this year as I hadnt grown them for a few years, so now it is probably harder to find bulbs as the bulb companies have mostly sold stock for spring planting.  Seeds can also be found from S African vendors and in the various rock garden society seed exchanges in late fall.

in NY where those 10 Ornithogalum saundersiae are just breaking the ground in my recently expanded S African garden in the back. Rhodohypoxis are continuing to bloom well and the first Eucomis montana are coming up, the eucomis are always the last thing to come up after winter.

I was wondering whether anybody knew whether Ornithogalum saundersiae 
had been named after our Saunders?

And what zone it would be possible to grow it in?

And where to buy it?
