White Pumpkin

White pumpkin, often referred to as “white squash” or “snowball pumpkin,” is a variety of pumpkin that stands out due to its unique color. Here are some key points about it:

1. Appearance: White pumpkins are typically round or slightly oblong, with a smooth, pale white to cream-colored skin. They can vary in size from small to quite large.
2. Varieties: Some popular varieties include “Ghost Pumpkin” and “Casper Pumpkin.” These pumpkins are often used for decoration during fall and Halloween.
3. Culinary Uses: While they are often used for decoration, white pumpkins can also be eaten. The flesh is usually sweet and can be used in soups, pies, and other dishes, similar to traditional orange pumpkins.
4. Growing Conditions: They thrive in warm climates and require well-drained soil with plenty of sunlight. White pumpkins typically grow on sprawling vines and may take several months to mature.
