I first heard of goji berries on ethnobotanist James Wong program Grow Your Own drugs or Backyard Medicine
(as it is known overseas)
I searched high and low to find them. It was only when I went shopping in Tesco (Please note Tesco don't sell them anymore) I came across them. Yep I got hooked!!!
I even looked at garden centers and nurseries, to have a plant in the garden. But I weren't happy about the price, anythink from £6.95 to £9.99
So last year I set myself a challenge.
To grow one from seed.
I was told goji are hard to grow. But I know for a
fact: Goji berries grow in the South Of England.
On the 4th of March, I sowed some seeds I had gather. Within a week germination happen.

It weren't long til I had to pick out the best. I moved only three to my little propagator.
Two of them shot up really well.
On the 12th April I enjoyed potting them up.
This is how there looked on the 19th April.
I took this picture today.. Look how well my little goji's are doing!!
