I can not find anything other than the same boilerplate description for Ten-Pu-La anyplace that sells the seeds, so I do not know if, like Shish ito it does have some heat but has landed on the Sweet Pepper page at Evergreen. From my taste test of the piece of pepper included with the seeds, I would put it at the same heat level as a Shish ito. And the description of how it is used matches how the restaurant uses it.

Ten Pu La is a beautiful pepper-no heat and not much flavor either but it should work for frying with lots of Schichimi Togarashi spice. The plant is stately too-tall, beautiful foliage and just hanging with green and red peppers.
