English term or phrase: titan arum

Estimados colegas:

¿Cuál es la traducción correcta de este término? He encontrado "Aro gigante" pero no estoy segura. También he visto en varios sitios que se usa titan arum como en inglés. ¿Alguien tiene otra versión?

Mil gracias,
Andrea

También la llaman la «flor cadáver» o traducen su nombre científico del latín al español «falo amorfo titánico», pero la mayoría de las veces se refieren a ella como «Aro gigante».
