in my experience, it doesn't matter whether it's in a pot or in the ground. All that matters is how much space does it have to grow (i.e. pot size), soil quality (use a good mix for pots), placement (max direct sunlight), and the most important, graft or air-layered.
with that said, just plant whatever you like, just bear in mind that it will not grow as tall as in the ground unless you use a really big pot. Also, take into consideration that as your soil is contained, you will need to add nutrients to it every now and then.
