A Cherokee Chief Dogwood is hardy in zones 5-9.
This tree reaches a mature size of 15 to 20 feet tall and a width of 20 to 25 feet wide.
A dwarf Dogwood variety may be a better choice for planting in a container.
Depending on the size of tree that you start with, an 85 gallon container is likely too large to start out with.
Here are some links with more information.
