Welcome!

I would put in a pot with medium bark, Most important is that it be held in place firmly so that when new roots grow their fragile tips won't be harmed by wobbling. (you may need to use a stake to hold it if it is top-heavy) Then water every 2-3 days (depending on humidity). You want "humid air" in the root zone. The plant looks healthy so the chances are very good for new root growth .
