Do pomegranate trees grow in Seattle?

These certain palm trees grow successfully in Seattle

5. Chilean Wine Palm

6. the Pindo or "Jelly" palm

Seattle is in growing zone 8 (Maximum winter lows between 10°F and 20°F). The last time Seattle saw a single-digit Fahrenheit temperature was 9°F in the winter of 1990-91. The all-time record low is 0° in downtown Seattle on January 31, 1950, and even then near the water it was still 4° warmer.

Marginal palms grown with success in Seattle:

  1. Blue Hespar Palm
  2. Sabal species - but it doesn't usually get warm long enough for their preferred 90°F high temperatures
  3. Mexican Fan Palm crossed with California Fan Palm - In cold winters keep copper fungicide handy.
  4. Canary Island Date Palm -shelter from NE winds, and use copper fungicide after periods below 17°F
  5. California Fan Palm - once per winter requires a liberal dose of copper fungicide, also repeated after any cold snap below 20° to prevent mold and crown rot.
  6. Mexican Fan Palm - best chance is near Puget Sound (Pacific Ocean saltwater) where the ocean moderates any cold temperatures - shelter from NE winds and cover emerging growth when below 20°F. *This palm can only survive 12°F if the center spear is wrapped and copper fungicide is added bi-weekly until the last frost in March.

The summer in Seattle is perfect palm weather, because May through September is the dry season, with summer highs between 67° and 85°F.

Typically only one to five days in the 90s, and the all-time high is 103°F.

However, Sabal Palms in particular do not prefer the cool, dry, semi-arid summers and do better in much warmer temperatures.
