Prune it back by 3/4 of its size when its dormant, and it is perfectly happy to flower every year and stay ~6-7’ tall and covered with bees.

Hi Francis, Yes, they do well in pots, and tend to size themselves to the pot. I put a lot of tender care into the chaste trees and gardeners who bought them have been really pleased. Richo
