Lycium chinense, also known as Chinese boxthorn, Chinese matrimony-vine, or wolfberry, is a deciduous, woody, perennial plant that grows 1-3 meters high. Its fruit is one of the most popular tonics used in traditional Chinese medicine, while the root is also used, believed to promote long life. With healthful attributes such as vitamin A, C, protein, and antioxidants to boost the metabolism, the plant produces pale violet trumpet flowers in the summer and berries in the fall. In the second year, the flowering begins with maximum fruit production in the 4-5th year. Lycium chinense is one of the two varieties of boxthorn plants, from which the goji berry or wolfberry is harvested, the other being Lycium barbarum. It is cultivated in the southern part of China and is traditionally believed to be useful in treating various disorders.
