I am trying to figure out the best thing to do with my hanging plants. I would like to save the soil and such but do not have a big enough area to cut them back and save them for next year. So I was wondering if it would be a good idea to compost them. Would I need to cut back the leaves and buds before tossing them in or just toss them in whole?

Any thoughts, Ideas?!?

Thanks

The more you cut them up the faster they will decompose.

If they're not diseased, I cut mine up and throw them in the compost soil and all.
