And this one now has 6.

Every naner that I have has at least one and most have 2. Don't get me wrong I don't mind it just at little surprised.

I've got one that's doing the same thing. It has 9 pups now, and it's only about two feet tall. The pups are growing slow and so is the plant. I think it's too much of a drain on the mama. Should I try and ease the pressure on the mama by removing the pups (as small as they are) and trying to get them going in water?

Ya know, Snarkie, I was thinking the same thing.

Let me get out there and take a picture.

Too many pups, not enough vertical growth!
