Each original illustration is shown in full with a clear explanation beside it.
01 · The whole plant
From roots to ripe fruit.
The goji story starts below the soil. Roots anchor the shrub and take in water and minerals; woody stems hold its branches; leaves collect sunlight; purple flowers appear before the red fruit forms.
Roots and stems support growth
Flowers lead to fresh fruit
Skin, pulp and seeds complete the berry
02 · Inside the berry
Every layer has a role.
The outer skin helps protect the berry and retain moisture. Beneath it, the edible pulp holds the fruit's texture, color and characteristic plant compounds, while the inner wall surrounds the seeds.
Protective outer skin
Soft, edible fruit pulp
Seeds at the reproductive core
03 · The edible pulp
Keep the softened fruit.
After steeping, the liquid carries some soluble components, but the softened berry still contains edible flesh and fiber. Enjoying the fruit as well as the infusion keeps the whole-fruit ritual simple.
Naturally occurring polyphenols
Goji pigments such as zeaxanthin
Fiber remains mainly in the flesh
04 · The complete cycle
Bud, flower, fruit, dried berry, seed.
Every form of goji belongs to one connected growth cycle. This final illustration brings the stages together so the source of the fruit and its transformation are easy to understand at a glance.
One plant, many visible stages
Fresh and dried fruit are connected

Root system
Strong roots absorb water and minerals while anchoring the shrub in the soil.
The plant, fruit, pulp and seeds are different chapters of the same goji. Use this visual guide as an educational reference and check product labels for the details that matter to you.
