PUMPKIN SEED POWDER
Product Name: PUMPKIN SEED POWDER
Pumpkin seed is the seed of the annual trailing vine Cucurbita moschata (Duch.) Poiret, or Cucurbita pepo L., of the family Cucurbitaceae. The names pumpkin and squash, especially in the United States, are applied inconsistently to certain varieties of both these species. The quick-growing, small-fruited bush, or nontrailing, varieties of C. pepo are called squash in America, while the long-season, long-trailing, large-fruited varieties are called pumpkin. The annual climber grows to about 0.6 m by 5 m at a fast rate. It is in flower from July to September, and the seeds ripen from August to October. The flowers are monoecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but both sexes can be found on the same plant) and are pollinated by insects. The plant can grow in semi-shade (light woodland) or no shade. It requires moist soil.
