'Repura' is an American cultivar raised by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF) as selection '1193-4', derived from a crossing of 'Regal' (female parent) and a crossing of Ulmus rubra with the hybrid Ulmus pumila × Ulmus minor 'Hoersholmiensis' [1]. Registered in 1993 as 'Repura' by Conrad Appel KG, of Darmstadt, Germany, the tree has yet to be commercially released in either the USA or Europe.
