Lycium barbarum
Zone 4
Native to China the Goji Berry has long been used for treatment of many health problems. Goji berries are very versatile -- they can be eaten raw, cooked, dried like raisins and used in teas, juices and wine. Large bright red fruit is highly ornamental and is produced continually from mid-summer to mid-fall. In early summer the large shrub produces small, bright purple flowers which are quite fragrant. This is an easy to grow shrub in full to partial sun in most any well-drained soil. It can be trimmed and staked or allowed to sprawl. HEIGHT: 150-175 cm SPREAD: 200-250 cm
NOTE: Fruiting shrubs are an easy addition to your perennial border or can be grown in containers.
