Goji Berry, Scarlet
Lycium barbarum
Description: Scarlet Goji Berry is a hardy, drought-tolerant perennial shrub known for its arching branches, delicate purple flowers, and bright red, nutrient-rich berries. Blooming from late spring through summer, this vigorous plant produces small, elongated berries that are prized for their sweet-tart flavor and high antioxidant content. With its ability to thrive in tough conditions, Goji Berry is an excellent choice for edible landscapes, permaculture gardens, and hedgerows.
Wildlife Benefits: Goji Berry flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, while its berries provide a valuable late-season food source for birds and other wildlife.
Medicinal Benefits: Traditionally used in Chinese medicine for immune support, eye health, and vitality, Goji Berries are packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and amino acids. The berries can be eaten fresh, dried, or brewed into teas and tinctures for their health benefits.
Native Status: Native to Asia, Goji Berry has naturalized in many regions and thrives in warm, dry climates, making it well-suited to Georgia’s growing conditions.
Pollinator Friendliness: With its long bloom period and abundant nectar, Goji Berry supports a variety of pollinators, enhancing biodiversity in the garden.
Planting Guidelines:
Height: 6–10 feet
Spacing: 4–6 feet

How to Grow: Goji Berry thrives in well-drained soil and requires minimal watering once established. It can be pruned to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. For best fruit production, harvest berries regularly in late summer through fall. The plant spreads through suckers, so containment may be needed in small garden spaces.
