Limited space but want to grow Dahlias

I have really small sunny space (3'x3') but want to grow Dahlias. How big should the pot be? Do dwarf varieties have big flowers like the standard ones? I am thinking of ordering from Swan Island, any suggestion of which variety?

Go to the gallery you can see my dahlias I grew from Swan island. You may want to make more room.

Go to Container Dahlias .com They have great container dahlias.

Try Gladiola's as well if you like them. I grew both them and stargazer dahlias successfully in gallon pots. My only mistake was growing them together as they became a pain in the arse to separate.
