If it is Alocasia then dig it up. If it is Colocasia you can experiment with a few - mine come back (Illustris) but it takes time for them to come back. I have Elena too but have not experimented with it in the ground (yet). I'm in the Atlanta area and we did get to 5 degrees three times last winter and the Illustris came back a little later than the year before.

One of the ones that came back bigger than the year before. The other location not as good but it is in deeper shade and not watered as often.

Here is my Elena behind Stingray.
