ABOUT US

International Aroid Society (IAS) is the International Cultivar Registration Authority (ICRA) appointed by the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS). 

​

As an ICRA, we would follow the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants (ICNCP) in the recording and maintenance of cultivar records for the Araceae family (except for  Calla L. & Zantedeschia Spreng. genera).
