Just curious, can't it be treated like a regular cutting? Hit the leaves with wilt pruf and let it soak in a water soluble rooting hormone for awhile? Of course it's not wood based but since nothing is actually touching the base of the plant but the water and additive wouldn't it be less prone to rot, or more so? If it can be done with a stick and other kinds of "fleshy" (not sure of the word) type plants, why not a banana?
