The stamens are not clear enough for me to tell whether these photos are of Bulbine bulbosa or Bulbine glauca.
I don’t know whether Bulbine glauca occurs on Red Hill or not.

Oh, sorry. Next time I'm up there I'll try to take a more descriptive photo?

Thanks. The thing to look for is the hairs on the stamens and whether the anthers point up or not. Also Bulbine glauca likes rocky sites.
