Thanks, Lancelot--I seem to have the opposite situation. I followed the instructions on the main banana forum page and the first pup I separated had plenty of corm under it but almost no roots. I'm thinking it probably wasn't a "sword sucker," but since it was six feet tall I didn't think it would be a weakling!

The second one was shorter--about 4 feet--but had more roots. I have planted both elsewhere in the garden and am keeping fingers crossed.

At least there are more pups if I have to try again!
