What is this?

I got this in a swap several years ago, it was a tiny thing, I originally thought it was a day lily. Well it has slowly filled this pot and occasionally has these sweet little yellow flowers. I need to get it planted but would love to know what it is first. It is a tough little thing, half the time it gets forgotten, ends up in the shade or the sun, and it just keeps on growing.

Joy,
I don't know what it is, but everything you plant grows beautifully!

Ok, I now have an id. Hypoxis hirsuta - Yellow Star Grass
It takes all types of climate and all types of soil. Shade, part shade, or sun, wet or dry. Guess I will divide it this weekend in case anyone wants some at the RU's.
