Spring Plant Fair 2026 | A New Garden for London with Fiona Packe, Head Gardener, The Regent’s Park

Fiona Packe is the Head Gardener leading one of London’s most anticipated horticultural projects: a new two-acre garden in The Regent’s Park, opening spring 2026, created to commemorate the life of Queen Elizabeth II.

Previously at Gravetye Manor, with placements at Great Dixter, Beth Chatto’s Gardens, and the historic grounds of Middle Temple, Fiona brings deep expertise in naturalistic and climate-resilient planting.

In this talk, she’ll share the vision behind the garden, transforming a brownfield site into a biodiverse, sustainable green space, and what it means to steward a garden from its very first plantings.
