Poly, may I please ask what daylilies you have crossed 'Le Me Be Clear' as a pollen parent that produced albino seedlings.


'Coming Up Roses' x 'Let Me Be Clear' produced 5/30 albino seedlings. (Sorry, that's < 25% albino (memory said 25% but I just looked up my notes). But out of the 36 seeds originally planted 6 did not emerge, so some of those could have been albino also.) Some of the surviving seedlings are bitone or bicolor (few blooms thus far and cream-pink vs cream not easy to discriminate on the sepals (versus pink on the petals)).

one of the 'Coming Up Roses' x 'Let Me Be Clear' seedlings

'Stars My Destination' x 'Let Me Be Clear' had 3/11 seedlings albino; seedlings not expected to bloom until 2019.
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
