Lynn, in Curt Hanson's catalogs that I used to do, I always had to work in a special "notes" type box where he explained how he determines foliage type. Here is what I used to put in his catalogs.

Curt Hanson said:Here in my zone 5 garden, I will not list a cultivar as dormant unless it goes completely underground before winter sets in. Instead, I will list it as semi-evergreen.

I have always gone by what Curt says on this, but the last couple years I have been checking them in spring too.
