Orange candleflower, for example (4)

I believe the answer is:

arum

(Other definitions for arum that I've seen before include "Type of plant, lily perhaps" , "plant with a white spathe" , "A sort of lily." , "Cuckoo pint is one such" , "A spirit for a lily" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
