Daylily seeds from deciduous ("dormant") parents may or may not have seed dormancy even with the same cross and within the same batch. Evergreen species daylilies similarly may or may not have seed dormancy. The exact same seed possibly may or may not have seed dormancy depending on how it is stored and for how long (seed dormancies can "wear off" during prolonged dry storage).

To make a connection with the seed's own foliage habit one would have to note how quickly each individual seed germinated, somehow be able to identify it until it matured, and then note its foliage habit to see if the faster ones to germinate ended up being evergreen. This would also be bearing in mind that the same mature daylily may express a different foliage habit depending on where it is grown.
