The scientific name of pumpkins is Cucurbita pepo. We've included closely related giant pumpkins (Cucurbita maximima) and winter squashes (Cucurbita moschata) as they often serve interchangeably in cooking and decoration. .Pumpkins like a long (60 to 130 days), warm growing climate, ideally 68 F to 90 F (20 C to 32 C); but a hot wet climate makes them susceptible to fungus. They need full sunshine and a rich, well-drained soil. See this page about how to grow pumpkins and this page for a list for pumpkins to grow
