Question
I have this squash or pumpkin? vine growing in my yard. My neighbor who is a farmer can't identify it, says it's not squash. I live in Georgia
Answer
Dear Wendypierre, thank you for your post. Unfortunately, I cannot help you without additional images--though the plant does belong to the Cucurbitaceae (cucumber family). Go Botany is website dedicated to wild plants of New England, though I'm happy to entertain questions regarding cultivated species. If you can acquire additional images with leaves, flowers, etc. and send them to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org, I can try to help you further. Best wishes.
