Can anyone recommend a JM that will stay small- say like two to two and a half feet tall and wide at maturity?(I don't mind pruning a bit, but don't want to have to wrestle it to the ground every year.)

I am in cold zone five, so it must be hardy and able to take some wind. I could cover it with plant protector in the winter if the wind is a problem This area that it will be planted in gets almost a full day of sun in the summer with some morning and late afternoon/evening shade.

Thanks in advance!
