Either one is great I have mine in a self watering and it seems to love it

I only use nursery pots, about 1-2” bigger than current rootball.

This plant is honestly so awesome that any sort of pots work. I’ve tried them all each time I’ve repotted or got a new one and they’ve thrived. I personally would recommend though a clear nursery pot! It’s great to be able to see the roots !
