Name: Jeanie Minnesota (Zone 4a) Replace your lawn with a garden!
The poor things probably just heave themselves right of the ground. Even with snow cover I go around every spring and replant all my heucheras.
Can you do a mulch with straw or similar?

Old gardeners never die. They are just pruned and repotted.
