    Yeah, I'd pot that up.
    Its one of the aerial roots though, so it wont actually have a stem in the soil unless you bury it all.

    Agree, I'd pot it up in a deep pot with the soil level about here:

    It's a very nice looking variety, I like the pure white colouring. Do the leaves of the mother plant have Swiss Cheese holes?

      Yeah the mother plant looked like a regular Swiss cheese plant but half of each leaf is white
