Hello, Yes you can grow hardy Chicago fig in a container, they do good in containers. Almost and plant can be grown in containers. What happens is bigger the container the bigger your plant becomes. What you can do if it is grow taller than you want you can cut it to size you want and then just keep it cut to just how tall you want it. If it gets to bushy you can also cut it back to a size you like, but if you like it as a bush it is good to also cut center out to allow air movement through tree, do not have to but it will be good for plant but like I said you do not need to. I hope this helps you and if I can help more feel free to ask me any questions and I will try to help you if I can. I do enjoy growing plants and have all kinds, right now my citrus trees are in bloom and I have had them in pots for years. I put them outside in summer in house in winter and there doing great, must say to pick fresh from trees is the best, always better tasting then ones you buy from store no matter if it is figs, oranges, tangerines, what-ever you have taste for you can pretty much grow as house plant in a pot, just need a sunny window. Oh maybe I should also tell you when moving plant outside in summer to put plant in place that gets and little by little give it more sun, if you put it out in full sun it will probable burn it, you need to adjust it slowly until it can take full sun. Cloudy days it a great way to start and you can set it in open and in a week or two of off and on sun should be able to take full sun. I have been already been putting mine outside in day-time and bring it in at night because days are 50 to 60 degrees and night still freeze so I bring it in. You will do good. :))

It can stay indoors as long as it get some sun or a grow light. Also be careful with a new plant because they usually come in and are already root bound which will require you to trim the roots and possibly move it to a LITTLE larger container

not really, but it get pretty tall (about 2 feets high). It didn't survive on winter. I already start plant it early this year it a pot, so I can move it indoor during winter. hope this help.

I live in Southern Nevada so my plant stays under a shade cloth covered lattice patio. I have it in a very large pot on a planter with wheels so I can give it full morning sun. I have it in fast draining soil so I water it every couple of days in the summer. I cover it with burlap in the winter and only give it water when it gets very dry. I trim it back when it gets about 6 feet. It blooms a lot and is very fragrant. I don't know about inside as mine is too big to get in.

I've had mine since springtime this year. It was about 2 feet tall when it arrived, and it hasn't gotten any taller over the summer. But it's still alive, so I'm hoping that it gets a grip and grows taller next year.

I purchased a half gallon jar to test this out. It's too tall by about an inch.

It was maybe 6-8 inches tall. A small plant but they are suppose to be fast growers. I bought 2 different ones. There was another by the same seller for $1 more which was well worth the extra buck as it seemed a better developed plant. I have to add however that BOTH my plants died. But I have to think it was something I did wrong because they were both healthy and green when I received them. Hope this helps.

It grew to be 12 to 16 inches tall. The flowers are lovely, and they last a long time.

It arrived at about 6" tall. I don't know how long it will take to fruit. The directions just said that, once it's grown much larger, it will fruit.

You can leave it in the bag, just make sure it's opened up all the way so there's room for growth. Or you can take it out and put in terrarium

Yes they can stay in their 2" containers for some time :) Eventually they will out grow the pot and need to be moved into something bigger.

Mine arrived about 22-24" tall. Healthy with leaves, in a small container of soil. I transplanted it as the directions indicated and it's doing well. I've had flowers on it, but no fruit yet. It's a happy plant, and I'm pleased with its growth.

It is about 10 to 12 inches. It would probably fit well in a large pot that is deep enough to push the obelisk into. It is circular not flat so plants would be well held as they grow.

You can, but you must keep it moist, spray it with distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or collected rain water, make sure you collect the water from a clean source and not under a synthetic source. I hope this satisfies your answer. Also to add keep the container a quarter to have full at all times, and don't keep the plant in full sun, if you do the plant will burn and dry along with the soil.

Good day,I received mine in a 4" pot and immediately transplanted it in a 6" pot. It has grown quickly and I will soon be moving to an 8" pot. I have had the best luck with all my tropical plants by increasing the pot by two inches until it gets root bound then going larger. Ultimately, if you will be bringing it indoors, I wouldn't go larger than a five gallon pot preferably on wheels. Hope this helps.
