dont know much about the tree, but I see there is a smaller variation called Cananga odorata var. fruticosa thats said to be a small tree or compact shrub.
The normal one is said to grow fast at 15'/yr and average 40', so Id think it may be too big for a 1/2 acre lot

PS there is also a smaller vine-like one... Desmos chinensis

Ive never seen/noticed any of these personally so dont know which types are found growing here in Hawaii... maybe the one in the container is a smaller type ??
