Hmmmm I’d say it’s a tad too big, possibly too deep rather than too wide

Glad I asked, definitely will size down a bit!

Of course, it is a pretty pot but maybe for a slightly bigger plant friend

It doesn’t look to be necessary to repot it just yet, unless you’re seeing roots coming out from the drainage holes of the current pot. I bought mine in what was essentially a red solo cup, and repotted her because she had a ton of growth being crammed together by the crowded and weirdly tall cup of a pot. This was her in May (I’m hiding the cup with the tomato can.) and the 2nd photo is within the same week after a repot. I think as long as roots aren’t poking out of the pot, and there isn’t a problem with the soil it’s in, you can hold off on repotting. Hope this helps!
