Why X.australis? If this is planted there are other species to consider and we can't key it with the information available.

@Tapirlord I went with X. australis due to the short scape compared to the relatively long flower spike. And the angled leaf bases. I presumed it was planted. But looks quite old due to size. A mystery.
