Celebrating 25 years of professional full-color catalogs! 

Welcome to our Summer 2012 catalog. This most recent catalog is packed with new hybrids, 

mericlones, larger sizes of current favorites and specially priced items. All are healthy, well grown and 

ready to be added to your collection. Warm weather is here and the plants are loving it! 

For more information about the items listed here or in recent catalogs please visit our 

website, www.carterandholmes.com. Also, from our website you can download a full color digital 

copy of this and other catalogs for browsing and shopping on the go. Our Spring 2012 is still visible 

on our website and most items are still available, including the special cattleya collections. 

See below for a brief key to the abbreviations and symbols used in our catalogs and on the website. 

“ *L* ” Indicates plants are suitable for artificial light culture or for growing on window sills, 

due to mature plant size and/or light requirements. 

“Blooming Size” indicates plants that are large enough to flower in season, within 12 months. 

“Near Blooming Size” indicates plants that are large enough to flower within 12-18 months. 

Items with “M” preceding the number are mericlones (produced from tissue culture) and are 

expected to be identical to the photo shown. Seedlings (produced from seedpods) are simply 

listed with the four-digit number. As is normal, you should expect variations in size, shape, color, 

markings and form among these plants. 

For standard sized cattleyas we generally estimate time till first flowering as the following: 

2.5”-3” pots - 3+ years 4” pots - 12-18 months 

3.5” pots - 2-3 years 5”+ pots - 12 months or less. 

Miniature cattleyas are Blooming Size in a 2.5”-3” pot. 

Compact cattleyas are Blooming Size in a 3.5” pot.

General Terms: 

All offerings are subject to availability and all prices are subject to change without notice. Each catalog, listing, 

order form, or other announcement of company policy supersedes all prior or undated announcements of 

company policy. All orders are filled in the sequence in which payment arrives. We accept checks, money orders, 

Pay Pal or approved credit cards (VISA, MASTERCARD, DISCOVER OR AMERICAN EXPRESS). Weather 

permitting, and unless requested otherwise, we generally ship domestic orchid orders within two weeks or less of 

receipt of the order. 

We sometimes offer orchids or supplies for sale with limited quantities on hand. For that reason, and because we 

cannot always accurately predict the demand for some items, we may have to limit the quantities of those items available 

to customers with or without prior notice. We apologize for any inconvenience. 

Our charges for packing and shipping domestic, retail orchid orders for plants listed in our catalogs and on our website: 

We generally charge $17.00 to pack and ship these orders if they include fewer than ten plants. If they include 

ten or more plants, we generally pack and ship them for free! 

Customers in Puerto Rico see above. 

Exceptions include orders from California, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Guam, Hawaii, the U.S. Virgin Islands 

and orders with AOS Coupons. We pack these orders for free and ship them for our actual cost of shipping. Our 

Free Shipping offer does not apply to these orders. 

For more information regarding shipments to customers in Hawaii, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Guam, Canadian 

and Overseas please visit our website section, “International and Overseas Shipments”.

Your patronage is appreciated. 

If we can be of service regarding any of your orchid interests or concerns, please do not hesitate contact us.. 

Our charges for packing and shipping orchid society orders, wholesale orders, other orders with discounts 

(other than AOS Coupons) and any orders for plants not listed in our catalogs and on our website: 

We generally charge 5% of the discounted plant total for packing plus our actual cost of shipping for these 

orders. 

Bonus plants: 

We generally enclose one free bonus plant (our selection) for every five plants ordered by retail customers and by 

orchid societies. If any of the five plants ordered are dug-up, bare-root plants, then the bonus plant may also be a 

dug-up, bare-root plant. Likewise, if any of the plants ordered are houseplants, then the free bonus plant may also 

be a houseplant. These bonus plants are “grower’s choice” and may not be the same types or the same sizes as the 

plants ordered. 

Supply orders: 

Small supply items are generally enclosed with orchid orders unless doing so might damage the plants or make 

the order significantly more expensive to ship. Otherwise, supply items are generally packed and shipped separately 

by ground delivery services. Either way, we charge $2.50 per box for packing supply orders. In addition, when we 

ship supplies separately from plants, we charge our actual cost of shipping. We can estimate packing and shipping 

charges if requested. In that case, if our actual cost is significantly less than the estimated charges, we refund or 

credit to customers’ accounts any amount in excess of the packing charge plus our actual cost of shipping. Likewise, 

if our actual cost is more than the estimated charges, we confirm with customers by telephone or email before 

shipping.

shipping method, if we are allowed to withhold shipment until weather conditions are conducive to safe delivery, 

and if we are allowed to ship to a business address or to an address where someone will be available to sign a delivery 

receipt. We pack orchids in bud or in bloom carefully, but we do not guarantee that buds or blooms will not be 

damaged in shipment for reasons beyond our control.

We take great care in packing your order. If damage is evident upon receipt of an order, please keep all packaging 

material and plants and please report the damage to us immediately. We may request that you return the damaged 

items.

We offer volume discounts to retail customers for orchid purchases of $100 or more at our nursery in Newberry.

charges. 

We invite orchid societies to schedule group visits to our nursery. We will provide lunch and extend open house 

type discounts of 10% for supplies and 15% to 25% for plants for groups of twelve or more orchid society members 

who schedule visits on Saturdays. 

Each year we are happy to contribute $50 gift certificates to societies in exchange for copies of their current rosters 

for the purpose of adding them to our mailing list. (We do not share our mailing list or information about our
