Maurice, not sure if I can add more than what's been mentioned but more data is good, correct.
Again, just a bit farther south in Defuniak Springs, Fl... - I've noticed that although evergreen, my CVs enter a dormant period where no new foliage is growing. Or should I say, none that I've noticed. However, they look as lush and green as a fan producing new foliage.
The semi evergreen fans, I've noticed that the foliage begins to descend, but still several inches of green fan is present.
Dormants, fall completely back and only a, pardon the lack of proper terminology, but a nub of foliage is visible above the soil.
I've added a couple pictures of some of the different types here. All were taken this morning. Differences in foliage heights estimated to be between 4-6 inches. Shame on me for not using a measuring device for reference. Unless you were to reference the plant marker which are sticking just a couple inches above ground.

The last photo reflects 'Mary Lena' a Dormant variety growing next to a Evergreen seedling.
