Fushimi Pepper Seeds – This traditional Japanese sweet pepper is delicious when eaten right off the plant! It has crispier skin and texture than its companion the Shishito pepper. The thin walls and bright green color make it very popular and widely used in Asian cooking, especially in tempura. These are generally picked and used when they are green, but you can also let them ripen more to a nice red color.
Fushimi Peppers can be harvested earlier than most other peppers, and are very prolific the entire season, so you'll be harvesting them all summer. You can cook these up with a little sesame oil and salt in a hot frying pan, they are also great when grilled or pickled!
Fushimi pepper plants produce a heavy crop of long 6" narrow pods. Plants are 24" tall and great for container gardens. Easy to grow in full sun and fertile soil. Capsicum annuum (80 days) Heirloom - Open-pollinated
Heat level: None
~ Packet contains 10 seeds.
In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 14 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 24” apart or into large containers. Harvest peppers when they are full size.
All of our seeds are GMO-free.
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.

I've found that when you combine roasted carrots, habaneros, lime juice and garlic, it will make the best hot sauce of your life. I think it's the sweetness and depth of the carrots that make the sauce even better, and pairs perfectly with the habanero heat. I got the inspiration from one of my favorite store-bought hot sauces, Marie Sharp's Habanero hot sauce. Sometimes I add some of your Chef's orange tomatoes too to make more of it, and they also give more flavor to the hot sauce and help tame the heat a bit. I grow these in my garden every year along with your orange habaneros, orange tomatoes and other hot peppers and veggies. Very reliable.
These fabulous peppers added lots of color to our patio pots. So pretty in multiple colors, plus you can pick them and add to salsa for a nice spicy kick. These are fun in any ornamental edible garden.
We let these hang dry, then ground them up – they made the tastiest pepper flakes. They have a nice kick, but good flavor too. Easy to grow plants, pretty peppers.
Great seeds, good germination, plants grow quickly and produce lots of pods for roasting. Great flavor and just the right amount of spice. We grow these every year in our garden in Utah.
These are so beautiful, tasty, and meaty. They make a great pico-de-gallo!
These were so big, one tomato can make a nice big bowl of salsa. They do have amazing flavor and color.
These were so tasty and very productive. Great for salsa.
I tried these purple Cherokee seeds on 2024. This is the first time growing these purple Cherokees and were amazed at the ease of germination and taste
These germinated in two days. I started them in midsummer and they fruited by late fall in my zone 10b garden and are overwintering just fine. I’ll have more to harvest by late spring. I made my red sauce for pozole for Christmas with my harvest!
Big Chiles with just enough heat to add to green enchilada's. The flavor after roasting is fantastic. Since green chile roasting is not a local thing in Eastern Washington we us a weed burner. The smell of roasting peppers is heavenly.
My favorite green chili to grow. Plenty of heat and after roasting sit perfectly on a hamburger. Also my wonderful wife makes Puelo Chili jam that is a real crowd pleaser
I was looking for a spicier New Mexico red chile and this was awesome! It is a beautiful looking pepper and the taste is superb.
Very productive plants even up here in New England!
Plants were quite bushy and full of peppers. Great flavor. Made a wonderful little Ristra with some of the later harvested peppers. Will continue to grow these yearly.
These plants were super healthy all season long and produced a LOT of fruit. They'll add heat and color to any dish. They made my cowboy candy and pickled jalapeños extra special!
