Hi Emily,
You want to look for plants that describe something like ‘compact',or 'good for containers’ in the description. There are so many different cultivars that it is impossible to name them. A lot of types good for containers will say so in their description. We got one this year from Seed Trust (seedsave.org) that is called Otraolny; it is supposed to be great for containers. If you get seed catalogs the descriptions will direct you. If you buy from a garden center buy only ones that state the growing height and fit the plan you have. You shouldn’t use an indeterminate because they will quickly out grow the area, (both the pot and the space provided.) If you need address or phone numbers of seed companies go back in ‘Diane’s Tip of the Week’ to January sometime. I have posted many different seed catalogs web addresses and phone numbers. Bye, Diane
