About Markus Kobelt

This is of course one of my favourite topics ;-)

So: My name is Markus Kobelt and I am the founder of Lubera and together with my wife, Magda Kobelt, we own this company. If I lean back and try to fathom what drives me, then it probably ultimately comes down to this: Values, something permanent, also the urge to create something that’s alive. Therefore, there was the turn to growing fruit, working at a nursery, two things that require a lot of patience from gardeners; or perhaps also the readiness to become a business owner or the early decision to get involved with plant breeding in order to create new varieties.

The fact that I like to talk, write and discuss cannot be overlooked by anyone who knows me or has surfed our internet pages. This perhaps came along because I devotedly studied literature with in my first “career”. After shifting to the “green profession”, my need to be expressive has simply not ended – it is a vital force that keeps me and Lubera in motion: We not only garden and grow plants with passion, we are also happy to talk about and discuss them!

Of course, I can be reached directly via email. If you have a question, concern or problem directly for me, you can write to Markus.Kobelt@lubera.co.uk.

Oh yes, I almost forgot! English is not my native language (the English on this website is translated). My English can be described as Swenglish (= Swiss English), but it is enough for communicating. And in the end, we gardeners all have the common language of plants and gardening...
