Hi,
What is this huge leaf plant/tree? It grows quite fast, flowers and spreads tiny seeds everywhere and new plants start growing. I had one that was almost 20ft tall but they tend to grow funny and break. Has sort of a fine hair on the leaves and stems. I have only ever seen this at a single property. I am in Los Angeles, CA.

Thanks!
