Answer
Solution:
Heroku is a bit unusual as hosting providers go. The filesystem your code is deployed on is ephemeral - any changes you make to it (like installing plugins) will be blown away a) the next time you deploy and b) at least once daily due to dyno restarts. In addition, if you're running multiple dynos, making changes on one won't reflect on the others.
What you'll need to do is install the plugins locally in your development environment, and check all the added files into the Git repository and deploy that to Heroku.
