Perilla frutescens may well be considered a classical window sill culinary herb. Shiso needs light to germinate and should therefore only be lightly pressed into the soil. When they are started indoors, they need a short cold stratification to simulate the winter season. Sow outdoors either in late fall or early spring, before the last frost. Choose nutrient-rich and well-drained soil and keep sufficiently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Perilla thrives in the sun and in partial shade.

Other names

Botanical name:	Perilla frutescens, Melissa cretica, Mentha perilloides, Ocimum frutescens

Shiso - perfekt für den Asia Koch Abend
Sehr lecker! Nicht ganz so leicht anzubauen - von der ersten Aussaat sind nur 2 Plätzchen gekeimt. Nach einer kurzen google Suche wurde Kalt-Stratifizieren empfohlen. Werde es also noch mal versuchen wenn es kälter wird :)

Wir haben beim Testen für uns herausgefunden, dass der grüne Shiso tatsächlich besser mit etwas Kälte keimt. Beim roten Shiso ist das jedoch nicht notwendig.
