Lynn Steiner will speak at the Waseca County Historical Society Spring Luncheon Lecture Series on Thursday, April 26, from noon to 1 p.m. at the Waseca County Museum, 315 Second Ave. N.E., Waseca.

Steiner, horticulturalist/author/photographer, will present &8220;Landscaping with Native Plants of Minnesota.&8221;

Steiner is well known to Minnesota gardeners as the editor of Northern Gardener magazine for 15 years. Slides from her new book &8220;Landscaping with Native Plants of Minnesota&8221; will be featured.

Steiner has crafted Minnesota native plant lists for all soils and situations. The book addresses many questions and misconceptions about introducing native plants into our non-native gardens and landscapes. Most importantly the book provides us with the practical information needed to do our part in restoring and preserving the natural ecosystem of our region, community and backyards.

A book-signing will follow the luncheon at 1 pm.

Call (507) 835-7700 to reserve for the luncheon, or to order &8220;Landscaping with Native Plants of Minnesota&8221; by Monday, April 23.
