The plants are bushy{{r|WSU}} and do not spread like the plants of winter squash and pumpkin.[2] Most often used as a summer squash, it is characterized by its yellow skin (which may be smooth or bumpy){{r|UoI}} and sweet yellow flesh, as well as its distinctive curved stem-end or "crooked neck".[3] It should not be confused with crookneck cultivars of Cucurbita moschata, such as the winter squash 'Golden Cushaw',[4] or the vining summer squash 'Tromboncino'.{{r|WSU}} Its name distinguishes it from another similar-looking variety of C. pepo, the straightneck squash, which is also usually yellow.[5][6][7] There is one similar non-edible C. pepo variety: C. pepo var. ovifera.[8] Yellow crookneck squash are generally harvested immature, when they are less than two inches in diameter,{{r|UoI}}{{r|UDC}} since the skin toughens and the quality degrades as the squash reaches full maturity.[9] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Zucchetta |url=http://agsyst.wsu.edu/zucchetta.html |work=Mount Vernon Northwestern Washington Research and Extension Center: Vegetable Research and Extension|publisher=Washington State University|accessdate=10 May 2013}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Summer Squash|url=http://urbanext.illinois.edu/veggies/ssquash.cfm|work=Watch Your Garden Grow|publisher=University of Illinois Extension|accessdate=14 May 2013}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Summer Squash|url=http://www.udc.edu/docs/causes/online/SummerSquash%2015.pdf|publisher=University of the District of Columbia Cooperative Extension Service|accessdate=14 May 2013}} 4. ^{{cite book|author1=Phillips, R. |author2=Rix, M. |year=1993|title=Vegetables|publisher=Random House|location=New York}} 5. ^{{cite web |last1=Saade |first1=R.
