Well, don't feel bad about losing the main stem, you have company. That happened to me with a couple of plants last winter, but the pups that came up grew very rapidly and outgrew the main stems of some other plants. The lesson I learned was don't buy bananas before winter. But when banana fever takes hold, it's hard to take that advice!

PS -- Mulch your bananas. Especially in your hot, dry climate, they will appreciate it.
