I grow lycoris, but not in a cold zone. What I know about lycoris is that it does not like to be moved. Moving delays flowers (but not the green) for up to 2 years.The green leaves ( looks like liriope) come up after the flower (September) and stay until the next June. The leaves disappear over summer, by then they they have fed the bulb. I think planting and lifting would not yield the results you would want. How about planting it in a pot? The pot could be placed where it would not freeze. Hopefully someone in your area could have more ideas.Have a joyful day and sorry I could not have helped more.

One to take to heart....1 John 4 ..............................................Where there is smoke...there is fire...in most cases the smoke will kill you long before the fire consumes you. Beware of smoke screens! Freedom is not free and when those who have not paid the price or made the sacrifice...think that only they are right and entitled to speak...they bring us tryanny.
