Hanging baskets

My summer baskets are still green and healthy looking - especially the fuschia and trailing gernaiums. should I leave them and just replace the annual plants or should I cut them all down? It's never happened before - I usually cut them down and overwinter them to replant next year but this year they've never died back.

Leave them alone until mid-april. I would cut back then and they should re-grow fast
I'd also either change the whole of the compost they're in or add in some food as they won't be getting anything from it at this stage and will need nourishment of some sort.
