Goji berries

Guys , finally had a taste of goji myself .
recently seen a picture on a different forum of a goji full of fruits
asked the owner and he told me , that the plant was 10 years old and this was the first really
heavy fruits season and confermed that the plant didn`t produce any fruit untill it was 6 years old and start to produce more and more berrys every year .....that maybe explain the price , the plant need to reach 10 years before produce fruit .

 

What did they taste like Sal?

Was it worth the wait?

 

hummmmm ...............hard to explain the taste , but as everyone compered to the taste of tomato , it`s actually wrong , they initially sweet , untill a bitter taste kick in ....not bad , but not amazing .....they do look like micro tomato and not just the color but even the seeds are the same .....overall I would say that, it`s a super plants , able to survive any UK condition and will not be surprice to see going wild in years to come .
worth having one

 

Très intéressant, he says in the wrong language

 

from my friend garden

 

Got to taste my first berries this year, too. What a disappointment! Perhaps they're better dried...if not, they'll go the same way as the horrible French prickly raspberries

 

Must admit that the six berries we had tasted quite nice, though six berries in almost six years isn't what I'll call a productive plant. It's now a "wasn't" plant and replaced by a cherry.

 

Oooooh that's a whole three each!
