AnnualThis 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.
Great seeds and great quality, as always!
Great service
I didn't open this email until I had a result from the second sowing of the red shiso seeds, not knowing that this was the only item from my order that was being requested for review.
I can now state definitively that there was a 0% germination rate
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.

Great seed quality!
I grew this pepper plant in a 20 gallon pot and it did very well. It produced dozens of small peppers that were spicy—hotter than your standard jalapeno. I put about 3 of these in my salsa to spice it up along with 5-7 whole jalapeños (I roast them which takes out a portion of the yea). This little plant produced so many peppers that I froze a gallon bag of them to use in recipes throughout the year.
I am loving this squash! It grows so long and has beautiful leaves. I grow it upward and loves it! I have harvested at least 3-4 on one plant already. The remainder of the blooms are male, and I am not sure if I will have any more. :( I have, however, planted more in the mean time hoping I will harvest as many as this one. I will definately grow more!. Thank you!
All is well and great service...
So far, everything we have purchased has had an almost 100% germination rate. And what sprouts has grown quickly and strongly. We are now big fans of MIgardener seeds!
