Cactus garden - cold hardy
Is there anyone else in the midwest that is growing pickley pear cactus, agave and other cacti and succulents outside in the ground? I just planted this garden in the spring. I know some of my prickley pear are cold hardy and they have stayed out in the winter before. The ones with the larger pads came from a friend in Phoenix AZ so I am not sure if they are cold hardy, my plan is to dig those up and bring them in the fall. All the succulents will come in for sure, I know they are only hardy to just above freezing.
When I put this garden in, I had a yard of sand and a yard of pea gravel delivered. I also mixed some potting mix in with the sand for each plant.

Re: Cactus garden - cold hardy
Check out coldhardycactus.com. There should be several types of cactus that can stay out all year long in your climate with good drainage.
