Trees not as advertised.
April 16, 2021

I ordered a 6-7 foot mimosa tree. I received a 4.5 foot tall "stick". No branches, no growth. Just a stick about 1/2" in diameter. Yes, it's alive and seems healthy. But I could have purchased a healthier, good looking tree at a home store for the same or less. And I wouldn't have my neighbors calling me Charlie Brown...

Goju Bush - Expectations.
April 15, 2021

I received the Goju bush on time and in good condition. I was disappointed with the size of the bush bu it is healthy and without damage. I am still concerned that this might not be a mature plant. I was hoping to get fruit from the plant this season. I will keep my fingers crossed.

Pleased
April 15, 2021

Originally a Florida girl, in an ohio world. I do not miss florida but I miss palm trees. Determined to have them grow outdoors in my summer backyard beach, I have made. Bringing them in during the winter with my sun lamp to remember the warmth. These palms are saving me mentally. I have no desire for florida. So thank you for showing me how to have florida trees in ohio!

Two trees!
April 15, 2021

This is the second tree we purchased from Fast Growing Trees. The first was a dwarf peach that is growing great and produces many peaches. We expect our new maple tree will do as well.

The 2 plants were crushed together in one box instead of separately.
They are living because I took them out immediately and planted them and gave them plenty of water.
They are in the shade. I thought I might lose them at first because the leaves were turning black.

Pleasantly Surprised!
April 15, 2021

I had my first order with Fast Growing Trees recently and am very happy it turned out so well! I decided to try one of your unique Crape Myrtle trees in the landscaping for a new property and the tree arrived very well packed, in safe condition and with everything as ordered. It's already been re-potted and growing nicely in my yard... no "recovery" time needed! I live in South Florida so I'm excited to see how this little beauty will flower this coming summer!

Not worth the money
April 15, 2021

I was very disappointed in the tree I received! For the money that I spent I felt the tree could have been bigger! I am not a happy customer and I will not purchase from this company again

Have not gotten them yet?
April 15, 2021

I ordered them March 25, I have not gotten any communication about any delay in shipping. I just logged in myself to find out where they are, and it says they are coming today. Well, I will have to send someone to my house to get them as I am out of time. There needs to be better communication.

Stellar Customer Service
April 15, 2021

Place a call to FGT and a Plant Expert will answer all of your questions and will guide you with tips for success. There is a saying you can "see" a smile on the phone and this is actually true. FGT products are of high quality and arrive carefully packaged as to avoid any damage during shipping. Product replacement is a no hassle procedure as well. Had Deer eat the foliage off my young tree the same week it was planted and received replacement within a few days. It now has a nice looking 6ft. Cage built around it for obvious reasons. I would recommend FGT to anyone looking to improve their Landscape.

Overpaid for a dying fig tree
April 15, 2021

I paid $66 (incl. $20 for shipping) for a Chicago Hardy fig tree. Way overpriced - as I discovered the same type was on sale at Lowes for $10. The tree arrived in a box with a small (1 gallon) planter with soil. It was about 18" tall with barely a leaf on it. I planted it as instructed with a suitable-sized hole in our backyard with soil mixed with garden soil + mild fertilizer mix. It's in a spot with at least 6 hours of sunlight. But in a few days the 3 leaves that it had have shriveled up and are now fully browned out. The plant seems dormant or dead - it's difficult to discern which. Perhaps it will revive as the weather gets warmer. But even if it does, I felt I've overpaid for a thus-far unsatisfactory experience.
