iiiThe neighbours
“I am the person who buys mums from Home Depot every year and sticks them on the steps and calls it done. This was a completely different thing. She actually looked at our house color and the door and designed around it. I didn't have to think about anything. Already rebooked for summer.”

ivAfterwards

Then it is
simply yours.

Once your porch is in, the display belongs to you. Keep the pumpkins as long as they last, move them, carve them, put them out for the birds — there is nothing to return and nobody coming back for them.

Real pumpkins hold well through October and into November in Virginia. When they finally go, they compost.
