What is a Loofah sponge?

Loofah gourds grow on a vine and only in very hot climates. We live in the desert and have Loofah grow on our little farm. Loofah sponges are the most natural form of sponges you can find. Most times the sponge color is beige, as you can see in the picture below, but sometimes can be light brown or greenish in color from the skin, as we can not influence nature.
