Is the variegated trachelospermum suitable for a deep pot or a shallow pot?

Is it better to use a deep or shallow pot for variegated trachelospermum?

Variegated ivy is usually planted and maintained in deep pots because its root system is relatively developed and its branches usually grow in a coiled manner inside the pot. If it is maintained in a shallow pot, its normal growth will be inhibited.

When planting variegated ivy, the material requirements for the flower pot are not very high. Generally, a clay pot is the best choice. This kind of flower pot not only has holes for drainage, but the material is also relatively air permeable, allowing the roots of variegated ivy to breathe well.
