You can either create a new Stage, add your controls into it or if you require the POPUP as Dialog box, then you may consider using DialogsFX or ControlsFX(Requires JavaFX8)

For creating a new Stage, you can use the following snippet

@Override
public void start(final Stage primaryStage) {
    Button btn = new Button();
    btn.setText("Open Dialog");
    btn.setOnAction(
        new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
            @Override
            public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
                final Stage dialog = new Stage();
                dialog.initModality(Modality.APPLICATION_MODAL);
                dialog.initOwner(primaryStage);
                VBox dialogVbox = new VBox(20);
                dialogVbox.getChildren().add(new Text("This is a Dialog"));
                Scene dialogScene = new Scene(dialogVbox, 300, 200);
                dialog.setScene(dialogScene);
                dialog.show();
            }
         });
    }

If you don't want it to be modal (block other windows), use:

dialog.initModality(Modality.NONE);
