That is a called a Tree or Cut Leaf Philodendron: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/37036/ They do get very large. Your plant looks waaay too large for the pot it's in. I bet if you unpot it you will find there is not a whole lot of soil left, but lots of roots, which could be the cause of the decline and yellowing leaves. Those are landscape plants down here too ... I have a large area on one side of the house that is full of them, and one large specimen planted alone on the other side of the house. As they grow tall you can remove the lower leaves and it gives a nice canopy tree effect.
