Red Goji Berry Plant Wolfberry Bush

Red Goji Berry Plant (Lycium barbarum), also known as Wolfberry and Matrimony Vine, is a deciduous shrub from Asia (China, Tibet). It produces nutrient-dense red berries that can be eaten fresh or dried and used in teas, smoothies, and cooking. The plant is hardy and drought-tolerant, thriving in a variety of climates and soils, making it a practical choice for home gardens and health-focused growers.

Foliage comprises slender, lance-shaped green leaves on long, arching branches. The plant grows as a deciduous woody shrub 6–10 feet tall with a similar spread and a sprawling, vining habit that can be trained on a trellis or allowed to run free. Berries are small, oval, bright red when ripe, with a mildly sweet-tart flavor and chewy texture. They’re rich in antioxidants, including zeaxanthin, and provide vitamins A, C, and E, plus fiber, iron, and protein. In traditional Chinese medicine, they’re used to support immune function, eye health, energy, and longevity.
