What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

The Yellow Crookneck Squash is a summer favorite, known for its buttery flavor and unique shape. This plant thrives under full sun and produces high yields of the delicious squash, adding a rewarding element to your home garden.

  • High-Yielding Variety - Golden Crooked Neck or Crookneck Squash is a high-yielding yellow summer squash. It grows in a bush habit instead of a vine, with comparatively compact plants that reach about 3-4 feet wide and 2-3 feet tall. This variety is appreciated for its adaptability, producing abundant crops even in challenging conditions.
  • Culinary Versatility - Yellow Crookneck Squash is a favorite veggie with tender flesh and mild, sweet flavor. Fresh squash can be eaten raw in salads, or it can be steamed, grilled, stir-fried, or used in baking. The squash blossoms have a delicate, nutty flavor and can be eaten fresh and raw, or stuffed, baked, and fried.
