These are growing all around a house we did some work at in Corpus Christi.  They've been hacked down by "landscapers" but they're everywhere so they obviously run.  They look familiar but I can't place them.  Debating whether to dig one up or if they're a no-go.

Looks right, thanks Nathan!  I guess I'll give it a chance in a pot because.... free plant?

Does look interesting ..but yeah, lol.. might be one of those things that is safest in a pot.  ..Agree, can't always pass up a free plant. Supposedly edible too.

I got it running free in my rain forest --adds to the tropical look along side syngonium and Diplazium escuelenteum ---love it

Piper sarmentosum is another good one. Came right back from the freeze like nothing happened

To the op, could be Farfugium???

Upon second glance, could be a Piper species.
