Thank you madam. That's what they are. I had searched for goji berries and found a totally different plant.
I just read some stuff on it and it says that they are ready in Late July or August. We have had a really late season this year, and they're already ripening. There doesn't seem to be one bug bite on either the leaves or the fruit, so it looks like this one is a winner. Seems like a perfect addition to fruit leathers that might turn out too sweet. I could see mixing with pureed pears, so that we get sweet and sour, rather like myself.
I tried my first sea buckthorn, last week, and discovered Autumn olives a couple of years ago, at the same garden.
These Public Gardens are an awesome resource. Plenty to nibble on for the casual visitor, and educational, for those wanting to grow their own, showing good plant choices and how they are likely to perform.
