Lambs Ears

I have a lambs ear plant that I love, but I have no idea how to get it ready for winter here in Minnesota. Can I throw some fallen leaves over it to keep it warm enough or should I dig it up, pot it up, and bring it inside? Any advice at all would be great! Thanks!

Just leave it alone. It's very hardy.

Ignore it.

I had some lambs ear that was taking over my beds. I dug it out with a spade and threw it away. It's still sending up fresh new shoots -- in mid-October!

Yep, leave it alone. It'll be fine. This is one tough plant.
