Lynn they have some dwarfish varieties now --- that might be the best way to go. I have a friend in N.C. who kept a night blooming cereus for 10 years. She had it in a huge pot & would lug it into the (unused) formal LR every winter & drag it back outside every spring. It bloomed every year for her. She finally gave it away b/c she got tired of wrestling that monster pot twice a year.
