They do reasonably well containerized, and that is a good way to keep them from becoming invasive. Remember that in a container, they will need frequent watering, and regular feeding. A food with a high potash content will encourage more bloom than one with a high phosphate content, and don't forget the nitrogen, since they bloom on vigorous new growth.
