My two plants are three years old, looking healthy and growing, but barren!** A: Hi lisajotheshoppingho,The Big Lifeberry Goji Berry shrub should produce fruit within the first to second season. This shrub does not need a pollinator to produce fruit. If it isn't blooming for you, it's possible that it isn't getting enough light. The Big Lifeberry is a full sun plant which requires at least six or more hours of direct sunlight a day.If you have any questions, please call our hotline (734) 654- 7485.Best regards,Fallon **Q: What is the difference between the two cultivars available?** A: Hi Luna,The Sweet Lifeberry Goji Berry Shrub is sweeter than the Big Lifeberry Goji Berry Shrub. They become especially sweet when dried. Both do best in well-drained neutral to slightly alkaline soils. At planting time, sink a 1x1" wood stake near the plant and bundle the canes around it. Let the tips of the stems cascade down, like a fountain. Each spring, move the tied point up further along the stake so that about one-quarter of the growth is above the tie. Then cut the branch tips back by 4-6". This encourages lateral branching, which is where most of the flowering and fruiting takes place. If you have any questions, please call our hotline (734) 654- 7485. Best regards,Fallon **Q: Can I growth this in the house?** A: Hi Vi Hong, We would not recommend planting the Proven Winners Big Lifeberry Goji Berry shrub indoors. It gets to be about 10-12 feet tall and 5-7 feet wide, making it difficult for it to fit in a container in the house. It does best planted in the ground in a place that gets at least 6 hours of sun a day. If you have any additional questions, feel free to call us at (734) 654-7485. Thanks,Hailee **Q: How big are these berries supposed to get before you eat them?** A: Mine plumped up to raisin size. but I like to dry them before eating, it sweetens them. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful healthy plant *by K***M on Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2016* Healthy, vibrant plant! I ordered a goji berry plant from a nursery in April, although it arrived green and healthy but very small (6 inches). It started dying after I planted it. After a month of waiting for it to come back I decided to order this one from Amazon, the price is reasonable, actually less than the one I ordered from the nursery. This one arrived very quickly and well packed. The soil was still moist and all the leaves were perky, undamaged. I put it into the ground immediately and it never wilted or show any sign of traveling shock. The plant is now over 13 inches tall, the trunk is strong and growing beautifully. After the disappointed experience with the first goji plant, I am thrill to see how well this goji plant is doing. Don't hesitate to order from this seller.Update: It's October 25, four months later. I am thrilled to see these ripped red berries. I didn't expect to have fruit so soon. Just a hand full of berries but the plant had quad tripled in size! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is the only company I buy live plants from *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2018* I’ve bought plants from reputable companies in the past & I always ended up with tiny seedlings barely hanging onto life. Then I found Proven Winners, a very aptly named company. They definitely know how to ship plants. I ordered 2 Big Lifeberries,1 gallon size.They came in 2 separate boxes, there are notches pushed in around the top of the pot to keep it from sliding up & down in the box. There are air holes so the plants can breathe. Also, the box is labeled as plants so that maybe the handlers in the shipping companies will take some care.When I ordered the 1 gallon size I expected the plant would be around 12 inches tall. The plants I received were around 24 inches tall!!! They are very, very healthy. I just might get a few berries off of these this summer.Thank you Proven Winners for a job well done.Update 07/14/18: I have many years of experience with outside gardening & "house plants" (whatever that means). I must say these plants are different. I did wonder when I read about American farmers having a tough time trying to grow Gojis.I received absolutely beautiful Goji plants. I immediately transplanted them into 2 gallon pots. I intended to plant them into raised beds. Approximately 2 weeks after transplanting they started to turn yellow. I knew I hadn’t overwatered (most common problem of yellowing) but they also looked sun burnt. A terrific heat wave had struck. So, I babied the plants, giving them hours in the shade. They still looked sickly. I was worried about losing them. I desperately wanted Gojis established this summer. So, I ordered more Gojis. Again, the plants I received were beautiful.By the time I received the second batch of gojis, the first batch had lost 99% of their leaves. I wasn’t sure what to do with them. They were already in the ground. I did the bark test (cut a branch, look for green under the bark layer). There definitely was a layer of green. It was amazing how dead the 2 plants looked without leaves. I forced myself to leave the plants in the ground. Meanwhile, my Sweetberry variety was yellowing, ugggghhh!Long story, trying to get short. My original purchase was 4 Gojis. Two of the Big Life & two of the Sweet Life. I have now ended with five Big Life & five Sweet Life because I kept buying more to replace the ones that looked like they were dying. I was determined to grow Gojis. I couldn’t believe how everyone kept saying how easy it was to grow. Some said if you can get them past the first year they will live.Before my last shipment arrived a miracle occurred. My naked plants sent up new bright green shoots. Then new leaf buds formed on the naked branches. What I can deduce is, Gojis are EXTREMELY sensitive to transplanting. All ten of my 1-gallon plants went through a spell of yellow leaves, losing leaves, followed by recovery.My advice, don’t throw away your apparently dead Goji for several weeks. Do the bark test to make sure it’s dead. I now have ten healthy Gojis. Even though they are considered a tough plant, they are sensitive to transplants. I wish I had known this before buying 6 more plants. Now I have a mini-orchard of Gojis! Some of my plants actually have a few red berries & I purchased the first plants in June (maybe late May). Amazing. ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Not at all what is described *by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2019* Product description says 4.5" quart and one reviewer said, "very healthy and bushy plant measures: from the top of potting soil 8 1/2" tall and 7" wide" ... that's not what I got from BayLeaf Nursery! These seedlings are 3" at most in a felt pot no larger than 1", covered with plastic wrap. The product description says 1 lb. These weigh 1.5 OUNCES. And apparently they cannot be returned because they came directly from the seller. And they took 3 weeks to arrive, without any communication from the seller. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/68993056-sweet-lifeberry-goji-berry-lycium-live-shrub-purple-flowers-red](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/68993056-sweet-lifeberry-goji-berry-lycium-live-shrub-purple-flowers-red) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-26*
