How big of a pot do I need for these

Hello, I am growing an Alpine strawberry "Mignonette" in my home inside of a growing box.
I am curious if a 1.5 quart pot would provide enough room for the plants to grow permanently.

One plant? Sure, water it, feed it. That should be plenty soil.

Yes, a single plant per pot. I just put two into a large container to see how well they do for a couple days.

Looks good, careful what you bring in to that area, as far as soil or pots etc. It will be a pain if aphids or white fly show up.
I'v done well with pots that size, you can take them, even plant them outside as the weather warms, bring them back to over winter.
