Elegant, pale-green fruit (slightly darker than the open-pollinated Shishito) shows some variation in shape. When you get a hot one, it’s spicier than the open-pollinated variety, though most fruit remain mild. Excellent for baking or blistering on the grill. Performs well in trials across Florida, the Northeast, and California. Bred by EarthWork Seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHigh Mowing’s International Sales Manager, Paul Betz, says:\u003c\/em\u003e “Katana F1 is the first hybrid shishito available as an organic seed, and we are excited to roll it out.
