Three colors, and where to stop.
A display arrives with most of its color already chosen. The specialty pumpkins carry what is left.
Every Penn Pumpkin Co porch package carries the same three color families: orange from the large, medium, and pie pumpkins, white from the ghost pumpkins included with all four displays, and heirloom green from the specialty count. Mums are a $125 add-on for stronger seasonal color.
The three that are already there.
Orange is the bulk of any display, and it arrives in three sizes. A Touch of Fall carries 4 large, 4 medium, and about 10 pie pumpkins. At three sizes, orange has depth on a porch.
White comes from the ghost pumpkins, which are in every package. They are the highest-contrast piece in a display, and they hold bright points along a run of steps in low November light.
Heirloom color is the specialty count, green among the varieties, and it is the color that makes a display look composed. It also grows fastest as the displays get larger.
The bigger displays buy mostly color.
Specialty pumpkins are the fastest-growing count across our four displays.
| Display | Specialty pumpkins | Price |
|---|---|---|
| A Touch of Fall | 4 | $350 |
| Pumpkin Pop | 6 | $550 |
| Pumpkin Paradise | 10 | $775 |
| Pumpkin Palooza | 14 | $1,250 |
Every one of those displays also includes white ghost pumpkins, minis, and gourds.
When to stop.
Our displays carry three color families at every size, from $350 to $1,250. A fourth tends to cost a display its coherence. A porch is seen from the street in one glance.
The one addition we sell for color is a mum assortment at $125, woven through the display. Mums look like seasonal planting beside the pumpkins, so they sit comfortably with the other three colors.
Which specialty varieties you get.
The specialty pumpkins carry the heirloom color, and their count grows fastest across the range. We can tell you which varieties come with the display you are considering.
