Hello trelane-ga

According to the excellent IMdB (http://www.imdb.com) website the type
of plant Leon nurtures (and Matilda replants at the end of the movie)
is an AGLAONEMA (apparently pronounced "ag-leon-ema").

If you have any further questions regarding this topic please ask for
clarification and I will do my best to answer swiftly.

Looks like an aroid, probably a Spathiphyllum:
