Delicious and incredibly nutritious berries
Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berries have been cultivated for centuries all over the world for their rich flavor and high nutritional value. With each berry you get vitamin A, vitamin C, antioxidants, iron, potassium, calcium, zinc, protein, fiber and more to naturally boost your immune system and energy levels.
These berries are so nutritious that they’re often referred to as ‘vitamin berries’. Unlike other healthy foods that are sour and lacking in flavor, Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berries have a juicy, sweet yet tart flavor that makes them perfect for snacking.
This Goji Berry variety is great for eating fresh off the bush, or for drying to snack on later. Both fresh and dried Goji berries will naturally sweeten smoothie or muffins. Add them to tarts, jams or even homemade trail mix to give your recipes a sweet and nourishing boost.
Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berries are rarely found in local grocery stores, and when they are they are incredibly expensive because they are in limited supply. By growing your own berries at home you’ll have an endless amount of fresh fruit that saves you time and money.
By planting the Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berry you will have an abundant producer of fruit that has showy purple flowers in the spring that make way for small green berries that ripen to a shade of bright red when they’re ready to be harvested. Your Goji Berry bush will continue to fruit from the late summer until the first frost.
They will grow in the ground and in containers. If you live in a colder climate, plant your Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berry in a pot and bring it indoors during the winter months. Once summer comes back around you’ll have pounds of savory berries to enjoy.
The Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berry is a worry-free shrub because it’s low maintenance and has a high resistance to pests and diseases. They also thrive in areas with extreme heat and high humidity.
Pollination Info
Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berry Pollination
Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berrys are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Sweet Lifeberry® Goji Berry will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Select a location with adequate sunlight (about 4 to 6 hours of sun daily) and well-drained soil. Plant in a hole twice as wide but just as deep as the root ball. Add a layer of mulch to prevent weed growth and help retain moisture.
2. Watering: Water your bush when the surrounding soil is dry about 2 or 3 inches down.
3. Pruning: You won't need to prune your Goji unless you want to manage the size and shape of the hedge. If so, prune in late winter.
