Thinking of daylily seedlings is a bit like looking through an old family album ... you might recognize some similarities between individuals, even though they each are unique depending on which genes they inherit from their diverse lineage. Most offspring might look like "mom and dad" ... but some might look more like gramps or auntie. South Seas has genes contributed from all of these cultivars, and more. So, I'd bet you'd see some variety in the offspring. (You can always see the range yourself by looking at the cultivar in the database and clicking on its pod and pollen parents, and so on back through the generations.)
