Antoine Noisette (1778 – 21 August 1858) was a French botanist who managed the botanical garden in Nantes, France, and a landscape architect, horticulturist and naturalist, brother of Louis Claude. With another brother, Philippe Stanislas, who emigrated to Charleston, South Carolina, he is credited with introducing the Noisette group of garden roses to horticulture. Joseph Noisette, their father, was gardener to the Count of Provence, the future king Louis XVIII of France.
