Is this a vine with each heart shaped leaf having a spike of tiny white flowers that 'turn into' round, shiny black seeds? And the leaves are fleshy, and if you chop them finely they get a little slimy like okra? Billions of seeds that all sprout, by the way.

Will take photos and post -- next week.

Oh, oops, just looked at Wikipedia, and I have something different.
