Why not identified to Thelionema caespitosum ?
Here leaves' widths ?
Here inflorescences much taller than and well above the foliage ?
Tepals lengths?

I was out there on the 21/01/2025 and there was at least one with a bud nearly open. They are looking pretty healthy. They appear to have recovered well.
