This came up unexpectedly and I’m waiting to see what it’ll be. I didn’t plant any squash or pumpkins this year. In fact I’ve never planted either in this garden bed. We affectionately call it our “pumquash” while we wait.

I have it under a greenhouse because we had our first frost warning this weekend, and I’d really like at least one fruit to mature so we can solve the mystery. This is the furthest along.

    The species is Cucurbita pepo .

    Since the species is quite large it could be anything from a summer squash, Halloween pumpkin, to a hard shelled gourd type.
