Default callistemon (bottlebrush) container advice?

Hi, I wonder if anyone is growing bottlebrush in a container, and if so
which one and what sort of conditions it needs. I have a north facing
but quite bright balcony, minimum will probably be around -5C.

The balcony is small but I thought I'd do a couple of evergreens like
nandina, perhaps callistemon, hebe, some fern and ivy, and a couple of
small maples. As well as annuals to brighten up summer. Any other
suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks,

-Emery
