Excellent Germination Rate
I'm Zone 10a, so recently started my 2024 plants. The germination rates surpassed my own saved seeds from 2023. They arrived quickly, but without tracking info. No worries, the envelope still arrived on the early end of the delivery window. The unexpected bonus was a hand written thank you. In all my years ordering from the big "A", I've never had a seller do that before. I understand that I won't see pod results for months, but they are clearly peppers and I've grown over 100 varieties in the last 3 years. So even if they don't grow 100% true due to cross pollination (before the seed harvest), I'm still 100% satisfied. Thank you to the seller for adding that personal touch to a normally sterile experience from the big "A" and I wish you all the success you deserve.

Lots of Peppers to Roast
It's nearing the end of the season and the plants I started from these seeds are still producing lots of Shishito peppers. When the seeds first sprouted I was sceptical of the plants. They were puny little things that didn't show any signs of growth for several weeks. Then the weather turned hot and they started growing and now are beautiful plants that produce lots of peppers. From three plants we get over 30 peppers to roast every week. I highly recommend these seeds. Note: it took a long time for them to sprout so plant early indoors.

Didn't Sprout
I got the shishito seeds and planted around 16 of them at different times. I kept planting more because they would never sprout. I gave up after 16, when none of them sprouted. I used a seed mix soil and had other seeds sprout. Very disappointed. The seeds seemed sundried or something.

Great germination rates and tolerate urban gardening conditions
Great seeds that have produced year after year with consistently more fruits than nearly every other plant in my city apartment window. Both my original seed packet and my f1 seeds had very high germination rates. Hand pollination was easy using a spoon. Flavor was great and often used when ripe for making milder chimichurri.

Produces well
My new favorite treat! Spicy, but not as spicy as a jalapeño. Great when they are fried up in a little olive oil and eaten as a snack. These seeds are producing many peppers. And the seeds have been good for two years for a second planting. If you haven’t tried these, I highly recommend!

Excellent seeds and peppers
The were some of the easiest peppers I have ever had to germinate and grow to an abundant harvest. Sprouted them in jiffy pellets but had to repot within a month, and they were over a foot tall within 10 weeks. Produced like crazy. Only issue was the deer liked them as well as we did, so do protect them if you have hungry visitors!

Very few seeds sprouted
Only 7 seeds sprouted from the packet received. My 2 year old habanero peppers germinated better. Great pepper variety once they grow.

Few plants
I grow all my garden plants by seed. This one I was not totally impressed with. Out of the package I had 2 plants. Planted other pepper seeds at the same time with much better results.
