I am going to pull out some iceplant ground cover. It is that big fleshy type of iceplant.

Has anyone had any experience composting this type of iceplant? It has a lot of moisture. I don't want to give it a new environment to grow in. My piles don't heat up much.

Worth a try to compost it. Maybe suffocate it in paper bags first. I did that with lysimachia,gooseneck loosestife one year.
Last time I was in Calif. the state was pulling it up along the coast from Monterrey to Pebble Beach.
Wonder what they did with it.
