Sun Star?

Hometown, IL(Zone 5a)

I got a plant from my local grocery store a couple of years ago, labled "Sun Star". It begins to grow in late fall, and flower in the winter. When the foliage dies back, I let it dry out and go dormant. It's lived for me since 2004. (Hope it blooms this year- it did last year!)
Can anyone give me the Latin name? The tag says it's from South Africa.
Here's a pic of the flower on the tag.
