Default Cycad hardiness?

Today, while raking leaves to put on some basjoos, I discovered some pots that had been taken out of the greenhouse 18 months ago (May 2007) I thought every thing was dead, having sat there, unprotected, through the winter of '07-'08, in New York, but then I saw several little cycads, in 6" pots, that were green. Granted, they mostly had only one green frond on each, so they may have died to the ground, in the winter, and resprouted this past summer. I don't know what kind they are. I don't remember buying them. I probably grew them from seed, or they may have been given to me, as samples, at a Florida show.

Anyone have any similar experiences, or have a clue as to what variety they are?
