flowers are identical to bellbine, once open
will have to wait about a week for a flower to appear
the current plants have got to that size within 1wk of them first protruding from the ground, so they are fast growers

Well, that could suggest something in the Solanaceae family - which includes tomatoes and potatoes but also the nightshades, and datura and nicotiana to mention just a few. Some are quite fast growing - and all have trumpet shaped flowers - either small like a tomato or huge like datura. Most are, to some extent at least, toxic.
The leaves and growth match Solanaceae quite well - looks a bit like one of the annual Nightshades but bigger than normal. But post a photo of a flower when you can!0 -
Long shot as you said the flowers were white and although this does occasionaly have white, more usual its lilac.
