As you can imagine, this is a very busy time of year for everyone, including the other stakeholders we would be working with.

To bring this vision to reality, we designed a unique new product, Forest Floor™ that naturally mimics the undulations, contours and look of the forest undergrowth.
The awards are open to any member of the Interior Plantscape Association across Australia and New Zealand. Entries are open July each year and close in September. Winners will be published on the IPA website in early November and announced across our social media platforms.
