green leaf with white veins looks much like a house [plant and is rapidly spreading.
Commentary
Thank you for your submission: It appears from your description the plant you are referring to is a common ornamental plant called Italian Arum, Arum italicum. This plant can be somewhat invasive in some situations and it is difficult to control. If you are digging the plant out be careful of how you dispose of the plant so it is not spread to other areas.

Location
our front yard looks like a variegated house plant that is spreading under our fence to our back yard. It was on the show for just a few seconds but am sure it is the plant in our yard. We do not know the name of it but we are digging it up.
