Fushimi Sweet Pepper Seeds - Japanese Heirloom - Crisp Texture

Adoro esse pimento fica bonito na salada ate como ao lanche

Initially these peppers gave me some trouble getting started. Comparatively there was a lower germination rate as compared to the other seeds I purchased from this site. Growing indoors was also not as easy for this variety. However, once I moved outdoors the plants grew strong and tall. The pods were numerous, healthy, and changed from green to red as they ripened. No heat whatsoever. The pods have a meatiness to them that is different from a shishito but still have a vegetal flavor when green and a bit sweeter when red. The pod had a medium-low quantity of seeds and are relatively thin-walled. I really was pleasantly surprised and am thankful I managed to enjoy its fruit!

This pepper did really well with very little issues in zone 9b. Had so many peppers to cook in a little bit of olive oil, salt and at times other added ingredients. Best tasting, some were a little hot which I liked. Better than Shishito peppers.

Found Fushimi after discovering Shishito peppers! Have them in our garden for years now. You simply pick, rinse, heat a skillet with a bit of oil, toss in the peppers and put a little char on 'em! Into a bowl, toss with a bit of salt and presto.....the best appetizer in the world!

I am a volunteer grower for a nonprofit and last year we added Fushimi peppers to our Spring Plant Sale offerings. Here in Northern Colorado, zone 5, these lovely, no heat peppers grew like champs. Extremely prolific, each plant provided us with an abundant harvest every few days over the span of several months. We used them mostly as a tapas style dish, blistering them in a cast iron skillet with olive oil and sea salt, and topped with feta cheese. If you like Shishito peppers, you will like these as well.

We love these thin-walled and glossy bright green Japanese peppers! Very prolific, and tasty, too. We had great success with your seeds, nearly every one sprouted. Thank you.

Here in southern California, in zone 9B, it's not hard to grow good peppers. However, these little guys have been producing like crazy! Hardy plants that germinated and transplanted really well and have exceeded my expectations. Will have these in the garden again for sure! Thanks.
