Most of the cactus you have would not live in a Zone 5b, the would only take a mild frost :cry:

We had a temp before of -1C. The one that did it was my Mammillaria and its the small ball cactus with the red thorns.

That succulent I have is it a aloe or a agave?

Looks like it may be agave americana?
