This Japanese heirloom is a spicy herb perfect for cooking Asian cuisine. With deep red leaves that smell like cinnamon and clove with a spicy flavor like cumin; this is a true showstopper. You can eat just the seedlings to toss into salads or grow them to maturity for more dynamic uses. A popular choice for adding color to pickling recipes. This variety loves sunshine.
* Please note! Red Shiso is toxic for grazing animals like cattle and horses. It is considered invasive in the Southeast and Midwest United States where it can self-seed aggressively in warm, humid climates.
ill start at a five because i havent planted it yet. other seeds i have started from migardener have had excellent germination
I've planted these like 5 times and not one sprouted. I've tried ten different things based on internet anecdotes of temperamental behavior or needing stratification, and also consulted a book written by scientists which, from experimental data, indicate P. Frutescens should not need any special care to germinate. At this point I'll just be ordering a new pack from somewhere else.
Red Shiso seeds germinate quickly, producing vibrant burgundy plants that thrive with minimal care. Their unique flavor—basil, mint, and anise with a hint of cinnamon—makes them a garden standout.
In the kitchen, Red Shiso is versatile — great for salads, sushi, pickles, and colorful infusions. A must-have for Asian cuisine lovers and edible garden enthusiasts!
High germination rate
A nice addition to the greens and salad varieties I grow. I'll update once they produce.

I've been using Trifecta plus since just about the beginning when it first came out. The results have been excellent. I've actually only used Miracle Grow before and with this product I can feel good about what's going in to the food and the nutrition level, thanks Migardener!
These seeds are growing very well. I am excited to taste them this Summer.
Concord Seedless grapes look great. They are growing beautifully.
I have never started my garden from seeds, but after watching several of your youtube videos I decided it was time. So far, I have been able to start the tomatoes, squash, green beans and pumpkins. Everything I planted has come up. I plan to buy more seeds in the future, as this has boosted my confidence in the garden.
I am kind of stunned. I planted these shortly after they arrived in spite of unusual wet, cold weather in southern Ohio. Both vines are flourishing. Currently working on a support system and a way to protect them from the local varmints before they're part of the buffet I seem to plant every spring.
