I am asking this question because I currently own 9 cultivars that are listed as dormant. What made me think about this is .... It was suggested to me to acquire "Siloam Double Classic" because hybridizers in Florida grew this one in the south. It also has the distinction of being quite rust resistant. So .....

Do you live in the south and do you grow any cultivars that are listed as "dormant" which are doing well for you?

The others I have are:

Wild One
Red Volunteer
Galaxy Explosion
Bandit Man
Persian Pattern
Judge Roy Bean
Duchess of D'Orleans
Lavender Stardust

How do you know if a cultivar is a hard dormant or a soft dormant. I am assuming that a soft dormant might survive in the south vs. a hard dormant. Correct?
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
