Wouldn't recommend it, and the roots will grow out the bottom of hte pot anyway. They respond well to being trimmed, and it's quite theraputic to do so!

I kept a box in a pot for about a year and it was not very happy. I put it in the garden and it is doing much better. It is a small tree and does not grow very fast, and can be trimmed.
