Lycium barbarum ‘Crimson Star’ “Goji Berry” Goji berry is one of nature’s most nutrient-rich foods. This “superfruit” is packed with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to boost immunity and longevity. A deciduous perennial plant, it grows from 3-9’ in height. Purple flowers appear in late spring to early summer and the bright orange-red "Goji” berries ripen from August to October. The sweet tasty fruit is harvested by shaking the vine. Once the berries, about the size of a raisin, are fully ripe and full of nutrients, they fall off the vine easily. The berries may be eaten fresh or sun-dried to be enjoyed later. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Our ‘Crimson Star’ goji berry plants usually fruit the first year. Hardy to zone 5.
Hardy Zone 5 and higher for outdoors.
Full sun, grows to 3-9' in container, minimum temperature indoors 30°, blooms in summer. |
