I take mine out of the soil to overwinter...I'm in zone 9...so I'm probarbly being too careful.
however - what you need to know is that they produce an amazing amount of cormels!

If I left them in the ground they would surely be classed as invasive - but this is in zone 9 and may not be the same for you. (I would be interested if anyone else has the same experience)
This year I am going to keep them under control...in a pot!

Don't let this put you off - the flowers are truly beautiful
