On Monday 29 September 2025, Jo is joining The Sissinghurst Series to share her enduring love of romantic gardens in a special talk:
Jo Thompson: Beauty & Romanticism in the English Garden.
Set within one of England’s most historic gardens, Jo will explore how colour, texture and structure combine to create atmosphere and year-round beauty — and how even the smallest space can be transformed into a place of romance and magic.
She’ll also reveal the stories behind some of her most cherished projects, offering inspiration and guidance for anyone longing to create a garden that feels not just planted, but truly loved.
To learn more about Jo’s love of romantic gardens read about her book The New Romantic Garden or join her Substack newsletter for weekly posts, chats and design advice here.
