I can't think of the name right now....brain freeze but just take note, this plant is a perennial. I've always referred to this plant as 'elephant ears.' It's a tropical plant and will continue to grow new leaves every year. I've got one that doesn't know how to do anything other than get bigger and bigger every year. I used to throw these out when the leaves died away. This last one, I put in a corner and forgot about it until the following Spring when it woke up! I've had it now for 4 years. Lots of water, dormant in winter. It also grows lily-like looking flowers on separate stems.
