well, the time has come...

for heavy frost!

What do I do with my Basjoo plants to put them away for winter?

Do I cut them back down to the ground? Do I wrap them with burlap (have lots) and then a bag?

I'm not too sure and was hoping for some members to advise me...

One of my Basjoos was buried a foot deeper than it was in the pot so I'm hoping it'll survive the winter. It's over a year old though and I've never seen a pup yet!

Please let me know what you guys think...
