I did cut the stalks back to ground level shortly after my last posting, with no ill-effects to the pups. They do seem to be growing more slowly this year than in the past.

On a different issue for you banana-philes: Is it better to split the pups off at the end of the season when the bulbs are dug-up for storage, which is what I have been doing, or store them attached to the main bulb and split them off right before planting in the Spring?
