Cucurbita pepo -  Early Summer Crookneck Squash

These buttery-yellow crooknecks have a tender flesh and a sweet, nutty flavor. This hybrid bush plant reliably out-yields older varieties, and they have excellent mildew resistance, few spines, and strong necks that won’t break during harvest.  They begin bearing early, so you won’t have to wait to enjoy them!

Days to Maturity: 40 days
Hardiness: Fertile soil and full sun required; super hardy!
