Almost anything will grow in a container, including fruit trees; look for

For a sunny patio, I would recommend going for ones adapted to fairly
hot, dry summers - others tend to suffer badly from not being watered
if you have to go away in summer.

Olive, bay, fig, citrus (usually), pomegranate, Feijoa, Buddleia
and others all fall into that category.
