Description
A gourd is a plant of the family Cucurbitaceae. Gourd is occasionally used to describe crops like cucumbers, squash, luffas, and melons.[1] The term 'gourd' however, can more specifically, refer to the plants of the two Cucurbitaceae genera Lagenaria and Cucurbita[citation needed] or also to their hollow dried out shell.The hard-rinded fruits can have carving done to create scenes raised in relief.Painting and wood burning are also used to decorate the shells.
