What kind of flower staulk? Are the plantlets in the air or in the water?

My sword has put up a staulk with 3 branches at the water line. The ends
seemed to get "burned" at the glass under the lights. I have opened up one
side of the glass to see what happens.

"Many species of swords produce plantlets when they send up a flower
stalk.
The plantlets can be removed and planted when they have several roots."

I have a sword the put out a stem with swordlets. When and how do I go
about planting these babies. There doesnt appear to be any root at this
point. The stem had been present for about 2 weeks now and the leaves
are
growing daily and there are about 3 babies.
thanks.
