Description
Turk's Turban pumpkins for sale at a farm stand in Washington State.
If you're looking for a confusing plant, Turk's Turban is it. First of all, it looks like it came from somewhere in outer space. Secondly, it goes by several names. Perhaps most confusing of all, it is referred to as a squash, a pumpkin or a gourd.
As a member of the Curcurbita family, Turk's Turban is related to pumpkins, squash and gourds. So, it's no wonder pumpkin growers call it a pumpkin, gourd lovers consider it an ornamental gourd, and squash growers commonly refer to it as a winter squash.
