Unidentified flower

This flower was photographed late this afternoon in my front garden, if budding botanist can identify it, common name is sufficient, please leave a comment.

    We grow Nerines here in the UK where most are tender or only borderline hardy. N. bowdenii is the most common with pretty pink flowers. The one you have photographed is a much stronger colour – beautiful!
