Default Re: musa red tiger,hardly any roots?

I had one that got broken off at about ground level. There were no roots on it, just a slight swelling, like the very top part of the corm. Threw it in a pot and, in the fall, brought it inside. It didn't really do anything most of the winter. Earl this spring, I noticed that the stem had dried up, and fallen over, but there was a nice pup alongside. The pup is now about 2 feet. (60 cm.)
