Do these have tendrils on them? If so, I have muddled up my labels ;)

I cannot remember about the tendrills but they have rather pretty little flowers.  Was not taken with the flavour.

Their flowers are white, other squash flowers yellow.

Mine declined to germinate. Maybe they'll do better another time.
