Honeybell Tangelo

Has anyone ever grown a Minneola "Honeybell" tangelo in a pot? I really enjoy this fruit. It is easily one of my favorites tied with Navels. The only advantage the navel has to me is the seedless fruit, other then that the honeybell is delicious. I know one of the challenges potted growers have is that the honeybell really fruits better with another citrus. Right now I only have 2 other citrus and only one is blooming size, and it is my keylime. I will have a meyer lemon and a cocktail grapefruit. I am hoping that one of these will be blooming around the same time the honey bell is. The honey bell, meyer lemon, and cocktail grapefruit will all be around the same size when I get them. I also know there is a spray you can use that will fertilize the flower. If anyone has grown the honey bell in a pot, please let me know.
