Some of the prequel speculation sources outline events surrounding a particular vendor at a fruit stand. Whether these fruit stands are significant in the plot of Episode I remains to be seen, but one thing that is certain is that they are a prominent fixture in the Mos Espa scenery.

This stand is heavy in gourds. Most of the gourds are a particular kind that appears to have veins yet hangs like a candy cane. These are so out of the ordinary that when I showed one of these to people, they didn't believe it came from a real plant.

Here's a closeup of one of these dried gourds. These items make an excellent choice for Tatooine produce as it has an out of this world appearance. This is the largest of all the fruit visible on the Mos Espa stands.

This small gourd is a familiar style of gourd and can be seen hanging from some of the stalls in the Mos Espa photos.

The image above appeared in Star Wars Insider #36. The woman with the funny hairstyle who is speaking to Sean Penn of La Mancha happens to be holding a few prop pumpkins. Unlike most of the fruit visible in Mos Espa, the pumpkins are not made from real produce, but rather are crafted out of styrofoam with coats of brown, green, and orange paint.

In this image, you see two different styrofoam pumpkins that have slightly different external shapes and stems. Paint is added to the styrofoam to give it a realistic look. Even in one's hands, these pumpkins appear to be real. Bon apetit.
