| My grandfather has been into daylilies since the begging of time I suppose. I think he actually started some time in the 70s. Anyways he is great source of information on the flowers. he brought up something he called "white factor" the other day. I googled it but cant find any info. I've heard of red factor in snakes But he said its related to the flower prairie blue eyes. know anything? |

| Maybe he meant albinism (leaves)? |

| It has been noted in the forum previously that 'Prairie Blue Eyes' carries albino, which of course is lethal to affected seedlings. So you mean dilution of the flower colour? |

So you mean dilution of the flower colour? yeah thats what i was looking for but been having a long conversation with maurice about it. its unlikely to work. Im now looking for flowers who genetic paths turn off the Pathways, Enzymes and in the branches of Carotenoids. I don't think it exists still doing research. |
