Help ID these tropical plants, please

We took some photos of some tropical plants in Puerto Rico this summer that we'd like to grow in our home, but we don't know what they are! Can anyone help?

Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to post multiple pictures. This forum didn't seem to like IMG tags. Se the link at the bottom of the page for all the pics in one place...

The leaves on these were about 2-3 long. The plant was 3-4 feet tall:

You should be able to get the scale of this plant from the 4" deck boards in the background:

Growing up a roof-support column:

A tree. This was about 20 feet in the air (I was on a steep hillside):

Unknown, but we liked it:
