Beloved in Japanese cuisine and now a staple at restaurants worldwide, Shishito is a mild, prolific pepper with thin walls that blister and char beautifully when roasted, pan-fried, or grilled. Harvest green for mild flavor, or wait for orange-red for a sweeter finish. Compact 24” plants produce abundantly — perfect for containers and small gardens.
Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before last frost. Transplant to full sun in fertile, well-draining soil, spacing 18 inches apart. Keep evenly watered. Harvest green at 3–4” for mild flavor, or allow to ripen red for sweetness.

Seller is pleasant and shipment was swiftly excited to plant and see the outcome ty
Thank you very much! they look great and arrived in good condition!
The seeds arrived around the estimated time of arrival. They were well packaged and looked good. I planted a few 3 days ago and I've already got sprouts.
I hope these flowers will grow in North Dakota! The colors are vibrant and hopefully the bees will like them. I will have to wait until after the Big Thaw in April before I can plant them - can't wait!
