scallopini squash?
 

I'm curious about the 'scalloped' summer squash I'm seeing in the seed
catalogs, particularly the yellow varieties with names like Sunburst and
Flying Saucer. Do they taste particularly different than the traditional
yellow crookneck squash, or is the attraction in the novel shape? I did
well with zucchini last year and want to plant more squashes this year.

I've grown the white variety for years & find it a bit sweeter than
crookneck.

I grew the white and yellow. I liked them as well or better than crookneck.
You should try one and see how you like it. They will grow pretty big if
you let them, but you can start eating them while they are small. I enjoyed
them both ways.
