I've just seen an ad for goji berry plantlets - has anyone grown these before. I have read that they can be quite invasive so I'd plant them in a tub I think.

Any goji berry experts out there? Your horticultural tips would be most welcome.

What they carefully don't tell you.. but can be read from the literature or from practise:
1. Slugs love them
2. If growing from seed, they MUST be overwintered in a greenhouse year 1 as they are not frost hardy when young.
