Shiso Seeds for Planting Green & Red Perilla - Non-GMO Heirloom & Untreated Herb Seed to Plant an Indoor/Outdoor Culinary Garden (Collection of 2 Packets)

We purchased these seeds at the end of winter and used planting pucks and a seed warmer mat to grow them indoors until the time was right in the spring to transplant them. They were tiny plants for months, before and after slowly transitioning them first to a covered porch and then to our raised bed gardens. Eventually, they’ve grown to be roughly 2 feet tall and at least 16” wide. Both the green and red Shiso leaves taste delicious when we use them for our culinary needs. They take quite some care for the first couple months, but once established, they only require sun and water. They’ve thrived in our 100+ degree Texas summer. I’ll definitely grow them again.

After four days, I had strong little seedlings pop up (see photo 1). Within 10 days, they had their baby leaves and were just taking off like crazy. WOW! The germination rate was killer.... Much better than my fescue mounds, black-eyed Susans, or Muhl grass. Just about every borage pod had a plant growing inside it. I kept them in the bathroom at 65 degrees, with no heat mat, and kept them relatively moistened, giving them a good squirt every day. I did not pre-soak my seeds in water before planting.

I've grown this plant now and again over the years, but this is the first time nothing grew.

Grew nicely

It's really good, but the cilantro didn't come up!

The cilantro seeds germinated well and fast, but the culantro never grew up.

Very pleased with the seeds. They are starting to break ground. I'm also pleased with the way they were packed.

Fast deliver and good package. I just put down the seeds and not it is not sprouts yet
