Who We Are

The International Plantscape Industry Alliance (I-PIA) is a dedicated online media and education platform serving the global interior plantscape industry. Through our flagship publication, I-Plants Magazine—published eight times annually—we provide industry insights, trends, and inspiration to professionals in interior landscaping, horticulture, and design.

I-PIA also operates a robust e-commerce store offering curated plantscape products, while generating revenue through both product sales and advertising opportunities for vendors and service providers in the horticultural and design sectors.

Beyond publishing, we are committed to elevating industry standards through education and recognition. We offer the Certified Plantscape Technician – Interior (CPT-I) online certification course, complemented by an in-depth Interior Plantscaping Reference & Study Manual. Our educational tools empower professionals to advance their skills in the maintenance and design of interior plant environments.

I-PIA proudly supports industry excellence through two annual awards programs—the Biophilic Design Awards and the International Plantscape Awards—as well as the Plantscape Hall of Fame, which honors outstanding contributions to the field.

We are also the publishers of the Plants for Interiors – A Selection Resource booklet and are currently developing the 6th Edition of The Guide to Interior Landscape Specifications, further expanding our commitment to quality and professionalism in the plantscaping industry.
