Thank you very much for your reply Tony! That helps a lot!
Mine will be in a planter in the ground so their root system wont be restricted,it will only be the hole in the cement at the soil surface that will be restricting them in case they grow too thick but your Kofi seems thin enough that a 20" planter will be ok. Do all Tall cultivars stay less than 50cm thick at maturity?

Thank you very much in advance!
