My query this time is about my cactus. They had been happily living in the
greenhouse all summer (unheated) Normally I take them indoors for the
winter, but this year I got them all as far as the garden table and had to
rush off. Completely forgot about them and last night a hard frost hit,
temps went down to -2deg. I've taken them in but does anyone know if there
will be lasting damage?

A few years ago I put a pot of cactus varieties outside for cleaning
and forgot them. The temperature went below freezing that night. They
all survived but a few of the smaller "branches" went soft and fell
off. Within a few months they grew again as multiple branches.
