Congratulations with your Manzano. I do not drive one but I here they are awesome.

Myself, I gradually increase container size to fit the plants requirements.

On the other hand you can hobble the plants growth by keeping it in a smaller container.
Your plant will need a large indoor footprint.

There are photo albums which you might find of interest.
