Goji Berry Plants

[Sue Nomie]

Does any one grow Goji berry plants in Puna? If yes, would they be willing to spare some seeds or
keki? I don't know much about the plant or the berry but would like to learn.
Mahalo,

Island naturals used to sell them. Check there

You might want to start with some research. This was the first hit I got on a simple internet search under goji cultivation:

www.gojiberriesblog.com/2006/07/05/tips-on-the-cultivation-of-goji-berry-plants-in-the-western/

It looks like a brand new crop outside of the traditional growing area.

Good luck.

There are several theories on goji berries, but people do supposedly grow them in Hawaii. If you've ever eaten the berries dried, you can see that they contain the seeds. I plan to do some experimentation on germinating the seeds and will let you know how it goes. Another helpful site:
