Scroll down to the thread about monkey puzzle trees in Michigan. There may be some information about keeping potted trees that you may be interested in. Basically, most plants will never reach their potential size if kept potted. With proper soil mix and periodic maintenance, you should be able to keep the tree potted for years and of a manageable size.
