Manda , the first one looks like either a Typhonium or an Arisaema
Really impossible to tell without a flower .
The complex leaf is easy , it could only be Typhonium venosum ...
Most literature will still be calling it Sauromatum .. but a recent revision
lumped it with Typhonium .

Please use smaller pictures in future as we have a limited space on the site
.
I will delete them in a month or 2 .
