Henrietta Knight, Baroness Luxborough (née St John; 15 July 1699 — 26 March 1756), was an English poet and letter writer, now mainly remembered as a gardener.
She married the rising politician Robert Knight in 1727, but he banished her to his estate at Barrells Hall in 1736 as punishment for a romantic indiscretion. Horace Walpole's correspondence suggests she was caught by her husband in flagrante delicto with her doctor, whilst other sources add a further lover in the form of a young cleric named John Dalton (1709–1763).
