Yep, I agree with Musa - it's a Banana plant!
...and I just looked again...there are two plants in that pot. The Banana is the taller of the two.

The other is a Xanthosoma.
Elephant Ears (Xanthosoma) (
Xanthosoma
)
Lancegoldman, it's best to start a new thread for each new plant. That will draw more attention to each ID.
