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.
The packet came with 150 seeds. Plenty of seeds to plant next spring. Great value.

Wonderful quality, Looking forward to growing them this summer.
Great seeds and great quality, as always!
Great service
Germanated quickly on a heat mat. Off the mat and growing ready to transplant early/mid april. Excited for leeks this autumn
Last year I bought seeds from my local store and I didnt get anything to germinate. This year I purchased all my seeds from MIGardener and I've had to give seedlings away cause nearly all the seeds sprouted!!!
Great germination! I'm excited to see how the onions turn out
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
