Franz Ludwig Späth (25 February 1839 – 2 February 1913), was a German botanist and fifth manager of the Späth nursery from 1863, when his father Ludwig Späth (1793–1883) retired,[1] until his death, when the nursery passed to his own son Hellmut Ludwig Späth (1885–1945). With his father Ludwig, Franz was a co-founder of the German Pomologists Association in 1860, and was made an honorary member in 1903.
