I agree with Nancy - leave them in the ground for winter. I would
not pot it deeper unless the roots are above soil line. Tricyrtis
leaves brown out if the plants get dry at any point - they do not
like dry at all. Need goodish drainage, but need it moist. They
also will brown out if they get too much sun.
