Bob Faulkner comes to us from Ohio.  His main interest is in creating new and unusual patterned daylilies.  He strives to have colors and patterns different from anything currently available on the market.  Bob's talks are about goals, dreams, challenges and how-to's of hybridizing daylilies.  That is topped off with nice photos of his work.

Lynn Steiner is one of the best-known gardening writers in Minnesota.  Lynn has a bachelor of science in natural resources and a master's degree in horticulture with a minor in agricultural journalism.  For fifteen years, Lynn was the driving force behind Northern Gardener, the official publication of the Minnesota State Horticultural Society.
