I'm not really worried that they will grow to 2 m, because I think it's physically impossible in my 65 cm planter. But I'm generally worried that maybe they won't like it on my window ledge. They do look nice and I'd like them to grow a bit. We'll see...

They are pittosporums. According to Wikipedia they come from sub-tropical climates, but the label says "mild climates" - I'm hoping my window ledge is mild enough. I doubt the temperature goes below freezing very often there, but it must happen once in a while. The label also says "tenuifolium 'Green Elf'".
