The general rule of thumb with most tropicals is you want a pot 1-2" bigger than the root ball 💚 it works with them all really... It's not about the spread of the foliage, but making sure that the roots have enough room to grow but not SO much that your plant will divert all it's energy into root production rather than leaves (which happens if you put them in too BIG a pot). I'd guess a 3-4" pot would be ideal.
They like terracotta but it's not essential, mine is super happy in her plastic nursery pot (you just have to be extra careful when watering 😂)
You got some beautifully healthy roots there though! She'll be fine whatever you do tbh 😂🥰 great job!! 👏👏xx
