Yes, because then you can bring it in to a cool room or a greenhouse for the winter.

Many of these plants did not survive our last winter outdoors. If you plant it in a pot, then would you be able to move it somewhere warmer during winter?

Otherwise it can grow happily in a pot, but it is likely not to grow as large as if planted in the ground and it will need to be fed during the growing season as it will run out of nutrients in a pot.
