Lycium barbarum is a perennial deciduous shrub, which can become a small tree after pruning. Lycium barbarum likes cold climate and has strong cold tolerance. When the temperature is stable at about 7℃, seeds can germinate and seedlings can resist the low temperature of -3℃. When the temperature is above 6℃ in spring, spring buds begin to sprout. Lycium barbarum overwinters at -25℃ without freezing injury. Lycium barbarum has developed root system and strong drought resistance, and can still grow in arid desert. In order to obtain high yield in production, it is still necessary to ensure water supply, especially in the flower and fruit period. The low-lying land with long-term water accumulation is not conducive to the growth of Lycium barbarum, and even causes root rot or death. With sufficient light, the branches of Lycium barbarum grow healthily, with many flowers and fruits, large fruit grains, high yield and good quality. Lycium barbarum mostly grows in alkaline soil and sandy loam, which is most suitable for cultivation in deep and fertile loam.
