There’s a house in Westover Hills that has a palm tree growing in the side yard. I believe it’s on Sylvan or King William. And the tree looks pretty healthy too

Windmill and some palmettos can survive as far north as Vancouver. There are palm trees in Ocean City, MD and they have colder winters than Richmond.
These particular trees look to already be dead, however.

I have two palm trees growing in my yard. One is a chinese fan palm that is surviving into its 6th winter. Last winter it survived with no protection. I also bought a sabal palm last fall and it survived last winter. With a little care, you can grow smaller palms here.

Kevin, Windmill and Chilean wine palms will grow in the Pacific NW and SE British Columbia, but the climate is very different. With micro-climates that are maritime/mediterranean and 10,000 – 14,000ft mountain ranges protecting those areas from cold continental air, the winters temperatures are much closer to Atlanta in Jan and Feb than Northern Maine, which is at the same latitude and is extremely cold in the winter.
