Description
You know autumn is ending and winter beginning when a light snow dusts the fallen leaves and covers the top of a large pumpkin, set out as a fall yard decoration. Though many consider it a vegetable, botanists classify all squash, of which the pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo) is one, as a fruit. As an edible winter squash, the pulpy flesh is most often pureed and used for pies and other desserts.
