Name of yellow courgette?

[jennym]

I'm growing a lovely tasting courgette, which has the bonus of being bright yellow. Unfortunately, a member of my household threw all my empty seed packets away before I had time to note the varieties for this year in my diary.
Does anyone have any idea what variety this could be?

[fbgrifter]

it could be 'gold rush' or 'jemmer'

[jennym]

Yes!!! Goldrush was the one, I remember. thanks a lot.

Ohh, I'm a little bit jealous.  My goldrush a couple of days ago had about 5 tiny weeny courgettes on them so will go down tonight and hope they are ready.  Yum!!!

My Jemmer have just started producing, had three fruits earlier this week, but didnt even get to taste them, kids scoffed the lot! Got six plants so will get plenty though . . .

Ours is simply called Golden Zucchini, and thankfully, altho productive, it is slower than the normal greens, so am only picking 6 a day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

Does anyone find that compared to ordinary green courgettes that:
1.  Yellow are slower growing
2.  The yield in numbers of fruits is lower
3.  Yellow do not turn into marrows but just get longer...yeah!
4.  Yellow have a tendency to stay really narrow at the flower end and only thicken up for 3/4 of their length?

........or is it just me and my varieties?! :-\    I have are Gold Rush and Orelia

I grow the round yellow courgette called Sunburst. They are eaten when golf ball size or can be allowed to get to tennis ball size and then can be stuffed or fried.  Either fried or steamed they are delicious and so easy to grow  :)

None of mine have been left long enough to get big, but I would say they don't seem so prolific as grren ones, and they seem a bit slower to grow.

Icy,

1. Yup (thank goodness!)
2. Yep (thank goodness!)
3. Uhuh (thank goodness!)
4. Nope - good straight uniform corgies. (thank goodness!)

;D

Thanks for the feedback - has helped me make up my mind to grow more of them next year.  Have got it so wrong this year its more like day of the triffids with courgettes - they are everywhere at home and I'm banned from putting any more in the fridge.....got them lining up down the work top now   ::)
