pull them out of their pots. I don't sink my plants here in zone 6 and

I sink my plants to keep from loosing the pots. Most of mine are in
terra-cotta pots which crack when the wet clay soil inside freezes. It
is amazing how much they grow under water. I have to cut some of them
way back when I bring them back up.
======================
Terra-cotta pots are a definite concern, and they're not cheap. I use those
inexpensive black plastic pots that seem to weather the cold and ice ok.
