    The shadowed side of one I had went partly brown so I expect so. Although the growth will be constrained in those planters, they do want to be big and will ultimately be unhappy there. Mine grew from a 60cm high plant to about 3 meters by 70cm in a few years. I would also worry about the weight of all those planters on your terrace and whether it’s structurally strong enough!

    thank you for your help, i think is better to prune the goldcrest just to growth again
