I know that you can but you need a tall greenhouse. but is that really true I saw a image somewhere where if you put a coconut tree in a pot or something that can be flipped and once it gets near the hight of your greenhouse you can flip it and it would straighten itself but also resetting it’s hight 

is this possible and can you grow coconuts in pots?

I am! It’s been a few years now. I keep the greenhouse heated to about 80F in the winter. And I have absolutely no idea what i’m supposed to do when the palm gets too big. But I hope I will live somewhere warmer by then so I can plant it. 

I keep it outside from April to October. So 6 months in the greenhouse and the other 6 months outdoors IMG_4853.thumb.jpeg.21830db109cca2ae57cfc355805d7255.jpeg

In 1970's, in the famous agricultural university of Wageningen here in the Netherlands, they cultivated a beautiful adult fruiting dwarf Cocos nucifera in a greenhouse!  Not in a container but in the ground.
