Best tasting variety of yellow squash that I have tried by far. Great yield all summer long. Freeze very well. Will keep in the freezer for 3 years and still taste great. Need to pick when they are 5 - 6 inches. |

This cultivar is a decent performer, but does not match up to Horn of Plenty or Dixie. Average as hybrid crooknecks go. |
