big leaves in austin, help

Bought a house and confronted by a plant that grows on independent GREEN stalks that are 20 feet tall and covered by giant "fig-like" leaves that measure 20 inches across. Suspect that this is a weed but don't want to sacrifice a good plant, can anyone help me ID this plant. The leaves leave the stalk alternatively on stems about 25 inches long, no blooms yet. The stalk-stem junction reminds me of the sumac stems join the trunk. The clump has about 20 stalks, bottom 3 feet are bare of stems/leaves
