Jane Wells Webb Loudon (19 August 1807 – 13 July 1858) was an English author and early pioneer of science fiction.She wrote before the term was coined, and was discussed for a century as a writer of Gothic fiction, fantasy or horror.
She also created the first popular gardening manuals, as opposed to specialist horticultural works, reframing the art of gardening as fit for young women.
She was married to the well-known horticulturalist John Claudius Loudon, and they wrote some books together, as well as her own very successful series.
