Last year we bought a star fruit tree in a big rubber pot. It is already fruiting at 3 feet high. Now it is more than 5 feet (taller than me) and fruiting. It is still planted in that rubber pot and we have no intention of planting it on the ground. At least a plant or tree in a pot can be moved to a desired place if needed. So if it grows so high then we can move it to another location.

Have a Bearrs Lime that grows fantastic in a talavera pot - plan on keeping it just where it is.

If you are not concerned with looks you might find a nursery willing to sell you the large black nursery pots for a reasonable price.
