Most of cooking pumpkins are grown in one area in illinois.
They are all one same kind of pumpkin. (there are many others)
Pumpkin colour and texture are more likely influenced by growing conditions and maturity at harvest.
I find quite a variance with butternut squash from more yellow to more orange based on maturity (the plant fruits for quite a few weeks allowing for some variance there.)
