The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry is a goji berry shrub that produces the largest goji berries available. It has small purple flowers that start in early summer and eventually turn into the berries. It also does not require a pollinator, which is very nice for gardens with limited space. The botanical name is Lycium barbarum 'SMNDBL'. The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry is deciduous, meaning that the leaves fall off each winter, and come back in the spring. There are purple colored flowers that bloom during summer. The flowers bloom on new wood, which mean the flower buds are grown on branches that are part of the new growth of the plant. The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry will also attract birds & many other pollinator when in bloom!

In garden planters, use this in the thriller role. Those are plants with drama and that add height or a vertical element to the combination. These are typically in the center or the back of the container. Plant these in a location that gets over 6 hours of sunlight per day, and in well drained soil. These are large shrubs, so pick out a location or planter large enough to fit it. The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry typically grows 10-12 feet tall, and 5-7 feet wide. For best plant health and results, space these plants 5-7 feet apart, center on center. The growth habit is mounded & trailing. The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry is winter hardy & summer tolerant in growing zones 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a, 7b, 8a, 8b.
