I also have a few of those 'rope handle' big pots wich are great. If you want a really big pot, there is the 65 gallon 'jackpot' made of industrial strength weed barrier material...I have 2.
It's only going to spend this year in the pot and go in the ground next spring. The biggest pup is already in California and the next is going to Texas once it gets a bit bigger...
A 25 gallon size is great for first year plants, can be moved easily with a handtruck and they'll develop good sized yet manageable roots when you transplant them. If it were going to be in there permanently I'd go with something much larger but for me it's too much.
