"What is it?" Is what I asked myself when I found this in the garden!

It looks a bit like my unsuccessful Hyacinths grown in special glass vases.

It looks like a small, pink Muscari armeniacum, but would that be in flower at this time of the year in your garden?

It looked to me like a pink scilla or hyacinth which made no sense as it's nearly autumn here!
A clue should be that it's in Australia

Caladenia latifolia?

Or Dipodium?

No, sorry (I'm useless at growing orchids

- but I do grow a lot of other bulbs)

We still don't know what it is. More help needed, Fermi.

Here's a pic taken 2 days later (sorry for the poor pic!) in the morning,

Polyxena sp?

Sorry, Jorun, I missed your reply, but no, not polyxena.
It's an Australian bulb called Calostemma, the Garland Lily,
