Anything can be grown in a container at least short term, provided the container is sized appropriately and the plant receives the expected routine care. A container will restrict root development and therefore suckering but repotting and root pruning may be required more frequently than with other, less aggressively spreading types of trees/shrubs.

these things are pretty aggressive .... you can see giants colonies along the roadsides in my MI ...

if there are drain holes in the pot.. it would not surprise me.. that they will sucker right out the drain hole.. and be half way down your road in a year or two ... lol ...

if you are going to bare root it yearly to tame it.. you may as well try something like this ... ken

So cute, the Rhus typhina bonsai! I would think that the plant would grow relatively quickly into bonsai form too. (Still not for me, though, way too lazy for that).

Will sucker out of the drain holes.

I Think I'm Going To Try The Way That Ken Suggested and Bonsai Him.....
Thanks All
