Question
Do lulav and myrtle have the sanctity of the seventh year? And what can be done with them after Sukkot?
Answer
There is no sanctity of the seventh year, but many are stringent and dispose of them after Sukkot. According to the basic law, the lulav can be discarded, but some are stringent and wait until it decays. Regarding the myrtle, there is a doubt in the Jerusalem Talmud, so one should wait until it decays and then discard it.
