Identification please (hanging foliage with root bulges)

Telefina

I've never seen one of these. It has oblong growths along the roots, they seem starch filled, probably some kind of energy storage.

Whenever I prune it, it goes into growth overdrive, putting out new shoots all over. The shoots resemble grain stalks, but then they grow into leaves instead.

It grows extremely fast, putting on several centimetres per day, growing an entire metre in about a couple weeks. I'm thinking it's in the grass family, except the leaves don't look like grass blades.\
