The “Goji Berry Tree” is an amazing plant, that often seems to have a mind of its own. Sometimes the plant will start out as a leafy vine, and produce several “runners” on top of the soil. Other times the plant will start out as a single leafy “stem,” that will stand straight up, and soon become “top heavy.” Often a single seed will produce multiple “stems, and vines.” To avoid damping-off disease, all of these different presentations require a “support stake (like a tomato vine stake)” to keep them off the ground. Over time, with proper pruning, the Goji plant will produce thick, multiple, stalks and branches, that will support itself; earning the name “Goji Tree.”

When growing in the wild, the Goji can grow up to 10 feet tall, get 8 feet in diameter, and produce vines up to 20 feet long. Plant your new Goji Tree with this in mind. The Goji prefers direct sunlight, and well draining soil. If the temperature exceeds 104 degrees Fahrenheit, partial shade is recommended. The plant cannot survive in standing water, or temperatures below –16 Degrees Fahrenheit.  

Before planting your Goji Tree you must prepare your “planting hole.”
