Unhappy have i just killed my first bannana plant

I was just going to re-pot my Nana plant so i grabbed hold of the stem and gave the pot a tap, and to my horror the stem snapped completely off. the stem was about 2ft tall with three leaves left on it. There are three pups which i hope will keep growing, but what i would like to know is. Will the plant grow back?

Just let it be. It will most likely be just fine, but you cannot change the outcome, anyway, so be patient.

Good chance the growth will continue out from where you broke it off. Just keep caring for it and you should have a big healthy plant soon enough.

If my plants start to chock I will cut them off right below the chocking point, and they most always start to grow back where I cut it.

With 3 pups Ceri, you have plenty of chances for recovery. Just don't water them too much. Good luck.
