Yep, it's a pup of the one that bloomed last year, in the same big pot. I didn't divide it or anything, it's a mini-mat of five large stalks in a large pot. It does look like next year I'll have to divide it though because it hasn't put out any new pups this year. I think basically it's a big root in a big pot. I'm sure I won't get many bananas because the plant is so overcrowded.
