You will be best served to keep even the dwarf plants one per container.
The main reason is to maintain good air circulation and spacing.
The size of the container can be as small as 5 gallons for the varieties you've mentioned. (I've grown all of them, FYI.)
I personally use 10~15 gallon containers.

And yes, the dwarves are more productive and easier to grow (generally speaking) in ground vs in containers.... in my experience.
