Goji Berries

mjr600

I've bought three plants from T&M for a tenner, there is substantial hype surrounding this plant, it is a multi million $ industry in the US where it is sold as the elixir of life.

I didn't buy them for the frankly nutty health claims but to add another UK climate safe soft fruit to the garden.

They do sound as though they should be pretty tasty, you may wish to try them too and for ten quid plus p&p they are worth a go, just don't think they'll make you live to 150 !

I saw these and was tempted, but decided to wait until I knew more about the fruits. To be honest. I'm a bit sceptical - if they are that good why haven't I heard of them before? I'd love to be proved wrong though.

So do let us know how you get on....

I might try these myself although I'd probably prefer to have just one and sticking it in a huge planter... just in case I ever have to move house I'd wanna take it with me Which is why I never plant trees lol....

I got some seeds from ebay & they're currently peeping up but wont see the fruit for a couple of years!! For us DFW's a much cheaper way of doing it!

Has anybody actually tried these and liked them? If the answer was yes, then I'd be more tempted
