Special Terms & Conditions
of
for
rhizomes to produce pharmaceutical products
and for the renaturation plants
Terms of Business and delivery within the Community (EU-EUROPE)
Validity
My general terms and conditions of sale, contract of sowing out
orchids and delivers
are part each and any business contract between me and my
customers.
By ordering, the customer explicitly agrees to these terms and
conditions.
Only orders of plant numbers in the
corresponding age group are accepted!
However, a general rule for the supply of
rhizomes to the above purposes:
- A previous binding indication of potential
weight of a rhizome is excluded,
this is not possible!
Rhizomes and tubes of pure
"cross-pollinated" natural forms of the same
development
time and nutrient doses vary in
size and weight.
Rhizome and tubes of
"self- or neighbour-pollinated" natural forms develop
in principle
poor and are completely
unpredictable.
Key to the price of plants is their
age!
Prices
Seedlings in or just out of flask
If not stated otherwise, prices are given
per seedling in best quality, sterile in glass flasks,
net in
and packaging material.
Between 15 and 40 (depending on flask size) seedlings ready for
potting are usually
in each culture flask.
Less orchids in culture vessels produced to explicit customer
preference are of course
more expensive; the customer is invoiced extra for these.
To simplify the delivery and assessment of
quality seedlings can be "deflask" delivered.
Plants out of soil culture
Orchids out of "normal substrate"
are grossly cleaned off the substrate.
Any additional requirements could be make
but the customer has to pay the costs.
The further treatments of these plants make
it difficult or nearly impossible to cultivate these orchids so
the customer has to pay the whole price before the treatments
will start.
Produced orchids "out of normal
substrate" are designated with price per unit
as follows:
1. one year in normal substrate (one growing
season)
2. two years in normal substrate (two
seasons) foll
3. flowering size or adult (adult plant is
ready for reproduction)
Unit prices will be, following the
trend of costs in the laboratory and energy, adjusted
each year. Deviations are permitted
only in the contract for sale.
All additional customer requirements, if I
agree, are chargeable.
Additional services will become immediately
payable, regardless of the time of delivery of the plants.
Required "CITES" fees or fees for
a Phytosanitary certificate will be pay by the customer.
Minimum Quantity
None
Payment
I am entitled to demand a conto or advance
payments. Usually these advance payments will be required in half
before sowing and/or half way through the culture time.
Advanced payment will always be required from orders from abroad!
If the reason for ordering plants the
destruction of themselves, the transfer of the plants shall be
subject to immediate payment in cash or timely prior payment of
the purchase price on my business account!
Delivery
The customer runs the risk and pays the
costs of transport
The dispatch only occurs in the case of favourable weather!
Approximately one to two weeks before the end of culture of
the orchids the customer receives a written, telephone or an
email - announcement of the successful completion
of the project.
Usually the delivery of seedlings in flasks
falls in the month between March and April.
The delivery period for plants out of normal
substrate, depending on soil temperatures, is usually October to
December.
Reclamation
Sending backs always require previous (telephone) announcement
and written confirmation
by myself!
The plants must be in original condition!
Orders
Orders are excepted only in written form with a legally
binding signature. After my written confirmation they are, except
of force majeure, binding for both contracting parties.
Force majeure in the laboratory area, the
purchaser acknowledges, among others, in addition:
Late contamination, water and electricity
and heating failure, poor or inadequate performance of my
suppliers in the chemical and laboratory technology field as well
as the external maintenance personnel, etc.
Force majeure area are in the "normal
culture" among other things, severe weather and pest
calamities.
Advance payments of the customer will be
reimbursed if I cannot deliver in case of
force majeure immediately. Anything more is impossible.
When sowing orchids it is generally possible
to adapt already in the artificial media the chemical conditions
of the application site of the plants in their later habitat.
The essential requirement is a prior
comprehensive soil analysis offered e.g. in Münster/ Germany
named the LUFA.
liability - legal responsibility
Basically, I am liable for compliance with
the conservation laws of the orchids sown by me.
In addition, I am responsible for the "species
purity" in order height (height of the purchase price) if my
company is the supplier of the seeds.
The production of seedlings is exclusively
in my laboratory on own developed culture medium, which include
only chemicals of the highest purity. If I use complex organic
components my trust applies here only the reputable manufacturers.
The use of synthetic plant-hormones such as "growth
promoters" is excluded in all stages of production.
The buyer has no rights to see,
recipes and production processes, to learn or to otherwise take a
close look!
To test my company and my method only
public corporations are specifically authorized and encouraged!
If a possible non-sterile culture is
necessary, it will takes place only by me, or by from me monitored
individuals instead.
In the logged "normal culture" are
guaranteed no:
- pesticides
- herbicides
- fungicides
- insecticides
- acaricides
- nematicides
- molluscicides
- bactericides
- Phytohormones etc.
used on the plants!
All plant protection measures which become
necessary are carried out exclusively by hand!
On request, a paid for the buyer independent
sampling of the substrates and the plant take place according to
the culture by the LUFA in Münster/Germany.
Any further liability is excluded!
My insurance certificates and will not
release my buyer from their own industry-standard input controls,
and their obligations to their customers or regulators over!
Reserved ownership
Up to the payment of the complete purchase price, the goods
supplied by me
remain my estate.

orchids, the buyer automatically be in default. The refusal does
not release the customer from his obligation to pay.

seed and about the import
conditions for sterile orchids to your native country. After
doing this send me the results
for specific further clarification of your wishes and the
potential costs.
