Can I dig a deep 2×2 shaft in the ground, plant 4 saplings on the bottom, give them light and bonemeal and have the tree grow to the very surface? Or does the space requirement mean there must be free room around the trunk?
I read there's no upper limit on the height of Jungle trees. Can I force the tree to grow very, very tall that way, by digging deep enough?

Coming right from the wiki: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Tree#Jungle_trees
So in order to successfully grow the tree, you would want to dig a 4x4 hole. Also:
There is an upper limit.
