Klister hippeastrums

Klister is a Dutch term to describe a number of bulbs tightly joined
together (in a cluster). But have not seen it as sales term used for
any Hippeastrum. Instead these klister bulbs are sold as Hippeastrum
multiflora. Most notably sold as the garden series like white garden,
happy garden, red garden and yellow garden. Google will certainly list
some vendors that have them in their assortment.

Dear Dennis,
I Googled Kister Amaryllis and Klister Hippeastrum and got a number of interesting hits.
Apparently Brent and Becky have sold Hippeastrum x 'Supreme Garden' And they look great. Google this for more.
And ‘Edensbloom offers at least one http://www.edensblooms.com/product/AO50/
I’ll bet there are more, but thius is just NOT the season. I gogled ‘Cluster Hippeastrum” - don’t bother.
When you find a good source in the fall, let me know. Tempting-very tempting. Jim W.

Is anyone growing 'Klister' hippeastrums? I guess these aren't anything
new, but they're new to me. Apparently it's the dutch word for cluster,
referring to the way the bulbs form multiple offsets quickly, which can
bloom when small (the size of a quarter).
