    Use a stake long enough to stick in the pot and reach up past the injury. Gently attach to the stake with a couple of twist-ties above and a couple of ties below the injury. (stabilize it's position) Loosten, reposition and re-tie the twist ties often to prevent further injury. (plant stalk will grow, and twist ties can cut-off circulation) Let the wound heal. Keep fingers crossed.

    They make some sort of breathable plant 'bandage' you can wrap around the break as well... I'm not sure how beneficial this would be, but it might be worth looking into. never used the stuff myself.
