    I'd believe it is an aroid of some sort, maybe an anthurium. Large family. Rainforest environment with high humidity and well drained soil, and good dappled light. I would grow it outdoors in most of Florida, but not in direct sun.

    But it also reminds me of Strelitzia. Same sort of environment but can take more direct sun.
