Default Chinese Yellow Banana, Golden Lotus Banana (Musella lasiocarpa) How to seperate pups?

How do you separate the pups on this variety? They are attached directly to the mother,not via a corm??? I did as I normally would and began cutting in between the mother and pup on some 2 plus footers, and they severed clean without roots? They sprout from in between the place, at the base, where the leaf intersects the stalk. I did manage to get one with roots, but I really think I just killed 3 pups and maybe the mother.

How do you separate the pups? Have you done it successfully?
Thanks,
