Is there a pumpkin out there that you think can do all of these at one time... good eating, decoration, and yummy seeds?

I've grown Triple Treat a few years back, and it'll fit the bill. I think it is sold by Burpee if I remember right.
Roughly 5-8 Lbs. Maybe 10 inches across, so not a big carver, but big enough and it's supposed to be a naked seed pumpkin like Lady Gadiva. Flesh is good for pies too.
I think there are 1 or 2 other varieties that is supposed to do it all.
Lol. If I get as many 2nd generation Argonauts set as I think I may, the kids may be carving Argonauts this Halloween. Haven't tried the seeds for eating tho.

I haven't eaten the seeds yet, but Winter Luxury Pie was extremely productive, the best for pies, and has a cute round orange shape in a nice size.

I highly recommend Musque de Provence and Winter Luxury Pie for high production.

Sorry didn't notice the question. The photo is mostly Musque de Provence in the wagon and Luxury Pie on the ground but also 2 Seminole and 1 Marina di Chioggia. This photo shows Thelma, Gill's Golden Pippin, butternut, acorn, sweet dumpling and 2 orange buttercup.
