Small: 4 inch standard nursery pot.

Light
Medium to bright light to maintain their vibrant foliage colors. Direct sun rays should be avoided, as it can burn the leaves.
Water
The Peperomia Piccolo Banda does not need to be watered too often. It has semi-succulent leaves which means that if you overwater it the leaves can become squishy and the plant can be susceptible to root rot. Instead, wait for your plant to dry out between waterings and then water it thoroughly. If you find it difficult to gauge when the soil has dried out then we would recommend using a moisture meter. You simply stick the probes into the soil and it gives you a reading of how moist the soil is. When the reading says dry give it a drink.
Plant Specific Care
Ideally, your plant would be kept around a medium level of humidity. However, it should generally be fine with whatever the levels in your home are unless you happen to live somewhere with very dry hot air and then you should add some humidity or mist your plants.
Keep the Piccolo Banda away from heating systems and this can artificially dry out the air around the plant.
Pet-Friendly Plant
Yes.
