Default Ensete Maurelli Rotting

I received a reddish banana from someone and it is putting out a leaf but I noticed a blackish rot at the base on one side and the concomitant pill bugs. I think that this may be the Ensete Maurelli. I'm greatly concerned about the rotting. It has been very cool and rainy this summer but it hasn't rained here in almost two weeks so I'd like to think that this plant can make it. What should I do, i.e. what steps should I take to ensure survival of the plant? I'll post a few pics when I figure out how to post them.
