Notes:
At the exhibition of 1844, Laffay presented two moss roses named 'Princesse de Joinville'' and 'Princesse Adélaïde', while Hardy had two Teas with the same names. Awards were presented to the moss 'Princesse de Joinville' and the tea oby Hardy of the same name. However, Hardy's award was passed on the 'Princesse Adélaïde' the following day. Confusion of the jury?
