A couple of questions, How big are the flowers? and Are they bulbs?

Romulea crocea is a possibility. Mediterranean bulb, flowers now.

Wondered about Chlidanthus fragrans.
And how about this one?

No idea at all, never planted it or sowed the seeds where it is, in the middle of Sedum spurium.

Found it, typical looking for something else, it is a small flower of Romulea bulbocodium. Would still like to know how it got there. Last time I tried to grow this bulb was 6 or7 years ago!
