Gather them up and put them in bin bags, I added some, er em... pee to
them a few times and got some lovely loam after about a year. Now I
gather them into huge mounds, as I have too many trees compared to the
few I had in England. I cover the mounds with soil and the old spent
compost from all the various pots and leave it. Next Spring I should
have enough for about 50-60 pots and baskets.
