I ordered a 1 gallon Veranda Banana tree, 2 ginkos, and 3 maples. Multiple trees were stuffed in boxes and as a results arrived with lots of damage. The banana was in a quart container rather than gallon and was quite tiny with all three leaves curling with dead edges and interiors. Not what I expected.
Contacted customer service by phone and also via the website. The phone representative advised me to contact the online team, send pictures of the tree, and that's exactly what was done.
I sent a picture of both of my lime trees (a healthy-sized one, and the second one that was a twig). The online representative responded within a day and said that the tree appeared to be alive and did not offer to replace it or fix the issue even though it looks yellow and all leaves fell off.
I know that citrus trees can drop their leaves after arrival, but I am simply not satisfied with the twig-sized bush I got as my second tree considering the price I paid for them.
I WILL NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS WEBSITE AGAIN!
We are so sorry to hear that your Lime bush arrived in poor conditio. We have reached out to see what we can do to assist.
There was a mistake on first shipment which they corrected right away no questions asked. The trees came ib great shape and are doing very well.
I bought 12 trees and two were in bad shape twigs for a 5' -6' trees! Over all I'm happy with the trees.
For what I paid for my tree and that I brought the larger one, I expected it to be more robust than what showed up. What leaves it did have all fell off two days after it arrived.
Shipping took way too long, I hope it survives.
We are so very sorry to hear this and are reaching out privately to offer further assistance!
The male sea buckthorn I received was snapped off at the base upon receipt and subsequently died. The shipping container did not appear to have been damaged in transit. I think it was simply packed without adequate support to ensure its safe arrival.
Thank you for your recent order. We have reached out to see what we can do to assist.
Tree ordered took a several days to ship, waiting for tree took a week to arrive only to find out that all 4 leaves of the tree had several brown spots. Very disappointed because the tree was expensive.

I have not yet planted these trees because of cold temperatures, they arrived in very good shape & are currently in my garage awaiting better/no frost nights to be planted
Even after confirming that I had the right size for my flowerpots, they came much smaller and won't fit. Now I have plants I have to either get rid of or buy pots to fit them... very disappointing. Would have been much better off purchasing in a store where i could make sure they were exactly what I wanted.

We are so sorry to hear this! If you haven’t already done so, please forward us some photos. One of our plant specialists will be happy to help!
Items were packaged securely and arrived very quickly. I ordered 10 items, and only had an issue with 1 item, which the company resolved, by sending a replacement plant free of cost very quickly.
Ordered 8 trees received 4 and one was broken. Took a long time but they finally credited my account. My time was wasted and had to pay my guys for 8 trees to plant 3
Last lady at the customer service finally credited credited my account for trees that was never shipped.
We are so so very sorry to hear this but are so happy that we were able to assist you and get this resolved. If there is anything further we can do to help, please let us know!
Ordered before. Great trees. Great customer service when we received a dud.
Shipment arrived in great condition and our Cypress trees are in the ground. A bit too soon to see if the remain hearty and start growing well.
The trees and bushes arrived fast and in good health. I have them all planted now.
The blueberry tree looks good with flowers. Very happy with that.
I did not receive the everbearing strawberry plant. I received another blueberry plant instead, a total of three blueberry plants. I spoke with someone and she said she will send the strawberry Kant and I should receive it this week. My concern is these two
Blueberry plants looks dried up and brown. I am hoping they will grow. If they grow I will be very very happy!
We received two trees on 4/16 even though we were originally told that our shipment wasn't supposed to ship out until the week of 5/3. The trees that we received were a bit limp in the box when they arrived and so we immediately planted them per instructions but the temperatures dropped quickly overnight and froze the trees. I'd be surprised if these trees ever recover. Would have preferred that FastGrowingTrees stuck to original delivery date to give the weather a chance to settle in as temps in the Northeast fluctuate quite a bit in April. Only time will tell.

Answer: Cancel your order now before it's too late, go to a local nursery and save yourself some money and unwarranted aggravation, these folks are not honorable.
Answer: I ordered 3 autumn blaze maples. They have been in the ground for 2 years now and have yet to turn red in the fall. I did some research and found that they only turn red if the temperature conditions are right. I live in Idaho and we basically skipped fall this year and went straight into winter. So once again the leaves just turned brown. I am hoping to finally get a display next year.
Answer: The same thing is happening to me. My tree died and they keep saying they're going to make good and nothing happens. Real crooks, this company.
