Which pumpkin do you think is the prettiest ever?

I like the 1028 Gienger.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. But personally, I like the 772 Poirier (still don't know how to pronounce it!) ;)

The 1028 Gienger is one of the very prettiest IMO. I saw it in person at the Delano weighoff. Excellent symmetrical shape!
Another I would add is the 657 Troy...I could be wrong on the weight. It was grown on the 940 Mombert 00. The pics I saw of it, showed it had awesome bright orange color, and the stem end looked very round. I didn't see a pic of it's blossom end though.

I saw both the 1290 Porier and the 1028 Geinger in person. Due to the skin alone the 1290 is a hands down winner IMO. The 1290 appeared to have hot orange wax poured over the skin. It was incredible. The 1028 was stunning as well, but didn't have the same skin.

The 1159 Richards was very nice as well, but I didn't see that one in person.
