Warty pumpkins are those fun, bumpy-looking pumpkins with rough, textured skin they look like they’ve got “warts” all over them! 🎃

Here’s a quick rundown:

• Varieties: Common ones include Knucklehead, Galeux d’Eysines, and Goosebumps pumpkins.
• Texture: The “warts” are actually caused by extra sugar in the pumpkin skin that makes corky growths

• Uses:

• 🌿 Decorative: Perfect for fall displays, Halloween, or Thanksgiving centerpieces.
• 🍲 Edible: Many warty pumpkins (especially Galeux d’Eysines) have sweet, smooth flesh that’s great for soups, pies, and roasting.
• Storage: They last longer than smooth pumpkins, especially if kept in a cool, dry place.
