Description
Early Prolific Straightneck is an heirloom summer squash introduced in the 1930s and later recognized as an All-America Selections winner. The plants produce smooth, lemon-yellow fruits with straight necks, creamy flesh, and a mild, delicate flavor when picked young.
Harvest at 4–6 inches for the best tenderness and keep picking to encourage more. Its cheerful color is easy to spot under the leaves, and its steady harvests make it a practical choice for sautés, grilling, casseroles, and all the generous meals of squash season.
