Guest Speaker Announcement: Bridget Uzar (Carter and Holmes Orchids)
We are thrilled to welcome Bridget Uzar, Chief Grower and Hybridizer at the renowned Carter and Holmes Orchids in Newberry, SC, as our guest speaker for October!
A fourth-generation gardener and second-generation orchid grower, Bridget essentially grew up "under the greenhouse benches," following closely in her father’s footsteps. She officially joined Carter and Holmes in 2002, starting hands-on with daily potting and watering before taking charge of the collection and breeding houses.
Bridget made her very first Cattleya cross in 2008 and hasn't looked back since. Beginning in 2009, she expanded her role to manage digital photography, catalog production, and marketing. Today, with over a decade of experience as Chief Grower and Hybridizer, she oversees greenhouse production, manages breeding programs, and leads the company's digital outreach and social media.
Bridget loves sharing her lifelong passion and technical expertise with tour groups, open houses, and orchid societies.
Stay tuned—additional presentation details and topic specifics will be announced soon!

Whether you are looking to fix a problem with a single windowsill plant or want to refine the parameters of a large collection, this session is packed with practical, timely advice. Bill’s famously humorous and highly informative presentation style will break down exactly how these unique orchids work and how you can get them to grow and bloom better. Come join us!
Whether you are a seasoned grower with AOS-awarded plants or a curious hobbyist just starting your first collection, there is a place for you here! The Triad Orchid Society has been a hub for orchid study and cultivation in North Carolina since 1987, and we’d love to have you join our community.
