Overview
Rampicante-Tromboncino, listed under both names, is a vining Italian squash that behaves very differently from bush zucchini. Vines run about 5 feet and bear long, slender, yellow-green fruit with a swollen bulb at the blossom end; left alone they can reach 36 inches. Harvest whenever you like, whether at a few inches as a tender summer squash or once the fruit has reached its full size, so one planting covers a wide range of kitchen uses.
