What are Lubera® Paradis®?
Lubera has been actively involved in apple breeding for nearly 20 years as the only nursery in the German-speaking region. From the very beginning, our goal has been to breed new apple varieties that can be cultivated more easily in home gardens and offer more success and enjoyment. With the Lubera Paradis, we have achieved this goal:

Lubera® Paradis® apple varieties are:

• better in taste; we do not seek a uniform taste but rather variety and uniqueness that is easier to cultivate.
• very productive, bearing fruit immediately in the second year.
• scab-resistant, making them easier to cultivate without fungal sprays.
