i had four lovely Hoya bella plants, but sadly, only one of them is left. but that one is doing really well, so i really hope it can survive the winter. i also have a little cutting, which fell off when i was moving the plants off of the windowsill. it is doing really well, with lots of roots.

is it strong enough to pot up? if so, are there any special things i need to consider? light, heat, water, the usual stuff. thank you.

Just the usual recommendations.
Use a gritty soil with pumice and/or perlite. Something like a cactus mix.

The roots are very delicate since they were grown in water. Most will break somewhere, but they will grow new ones. Expect a lull in new leafy growth as it concentrates on regrowing roots.

Keep it warm, above 60 is best.

Being a Hoya, it prefers to be just moist and never soggy.

Also prefers very bright light.
