It's Easy To Grow Goji Berry plants
Goji Berry Plants are easy to grow once they are established. They will grow in almost any type of soil, light-sandy, Medium-loamy, and heavy-clay, but they tend to flower and fruit better with a little love in a well drained soil of moderate quality.
Goji Berry plants have an extensive root system and are very drought tolerant once established. The Berry plants prefer full sun to partial shade, so plant them in full sun for the best Goji Berry production.
The Goji Berry grows as a thick bush reaching 8-10 feet tall with vines that can get 12 feet long.
In early summer this beautiful plant is covered with small trumpet shaped flowers. Both purple and white blossoms are on the same Goji plant. Goji berry plants add colour to any landscape with their delicate flowers.
In the summer the plant produces pretty little purple flowers that are followed by glossy, bright red Goji Berries. The Goji plant continues to flower and produce Goji Berries right up until the first heavy frost. The fresh Goji berries are super juicy and sweet.
Goji Berry plants will begin to fruit when they are 2 years old. However heavy yields can be expected from Goji plants that are 4 to 5 years old.
Goji Berry can be grown as a House Plant!
The Goji Berry can be grown indoors if given enough light. They can be grown under a strong, full spectrum, artificial light or they can be set by a window that gets direct sunlight for at least 8 hours every day. It is best to grow the Goji plants outside if possible as they will reward you with much more fruit.
If you do choose to grow the Goji Berry as a houseplant, you will need to pollinate the flowers by hand (simply touch the flowers together so that pollen from both touch each other).
