1st Goji plant: 2 years old - ready to bloom = bear fruit
Current height 20-40 cm
Common name: Goji, Boxthorn
Scientific name: Lycium barbarum
Family: Nightshade family
Plant history & use:
Goji berries are one of the most popular "superfoods" (term for food with especially high nutritional value) and are often used in muesli, smoothies, salads, and bread or simply eaten as they are. The reason for their popularity is likely because the goji berry is one of the most nutrient-dense berries available. It is rich in vitamins and minerals as well as omega-3 and antioxidants. The goji berry also has a particularly high protein content of 10g per 100g, which is very rare among fruits and berries. The taste is sweet with hints of cranberry and cherry. Usually, the berries are dried before use.
The red goji berry is richer in carotenoids than the black goji berry, while the black one is richer in antioxidants.
The root is used in herbal medicine for, among other things, its liver-cleansing properties.
The leaves are used in Asia in stews and soups or made into tea.
Cultivation:
Goji grows wild in Asia and has, since being introduced to Sweden, also begun to spread naturally here. The plant is a deciduous shrub that usually grows 80-200 cm tall.
The plant is very easy to care for and hardy against both salt and wind. It thrives well in both sun and partial shade – goji is an adaptable plant.
Characteristics:
Perennial: Perennial
Growing position: sun/partial shade
Height: up to 3 meters (often around 2m)
