Found a beautiful tree to order as a memorial gift. Because it was still winter time, I was made aware that the tree wouldn't ship until the last week of March. Ease of ordering was great, tree was shipped when promised and came packaged carefully.

Well packaged plants, arrived quick. They perked up really well in our greenhouse after a week or two. They look great so far and I am excited to have them. I would use this company again for future tree purchases.

Tr another business. They delivered trees which were completely destroyed. The second replacement delivery still has not arrived. One of the tracking numbers shows that it will arrive weeks after it was ordered.

Disappointed
April 14, 2021

I purchased a Monestra House Plant.The product rec'd was not only damaged due to packed poorly (I. E. not protectively packaged). It clearly not the same product represented in the website photo. The email addresses given didn't work after trying several times. Would not recommend this site nor purchase anything else from this company.

I frequently buy plants online and have found fastgrowing trees to consistently provide very healthy trees, bushes and plants. I have probably placed at least five orders in the past few years and will continue to do so. I have not been disappointed. They are professional. The plants are very well packed. Larger than expected nearly every time. Reasonably priced and received quickly. I highly recommend fastgrowing trees.

A little Disappointed
May 12, 2021

The trees arrived with the packaging so damaged I almost didnt accept the order, not that it was FGT fault it was the shipping company fault... I ordered 5,3 to 4 foot Black Hills Spruces and 10 1 to 2 foot Norway Spruces, except 1 footer doesnt look great but we'll see after its in the ground a while, the rest of the trees are healthy but the shape of the trees for the price of 110.00 it not worth it... I went to a local tree farm and got 7 footers for 150.00 per tree and a 6 footer for 125.00, if You could see those trees there is no comparison between them... The trees to the right are from a local tree farm and the ones to the left are from FGT. Sorry no comparison...

Horrible Communications!
May 12, 2021

I had my order in with FastGrowingTrees.com for months and had not heard anything. When they didn't arrive when promised I called to see what was going on only to find out that they are now back ordered for another month!

Arrived in perfect condition
April 12, 2021

Ordered 2 trees that arrived in perfect condition. FedEx was a day late with them so I was a little worried. Opened the box and these trees are already blooming! Planted them yesterday and they look GREAT!

Ordered a dragonfruit cactus. It shipped promptly but arrived split in two. The packaging might not have been adequate for this type of plant. The cardboard circle around the base did nothing to secure the plant in its loose pot, so I suspect it slid out in the larger carton and broke.

FastGrowingTrees.com shipped me a replacement very quickly when I raised this issue. The new plant arrived quickly but also had basically been launched out of its pot and had creases/bruises. I'd suggest better anchoring these plants when shipping somehow so they can't fall out of the pot, and/or better protecting the core plant and root system so such movement isn't critical to the plant.

No the best choice
April 13, 2021

Internet have bring facility to purchase things from our homes, but somethings are better done as the "old ways", do yourself a favor and go to a nursery, enjoy a good ride and find better products at better prices, the products the I have received do not even match the local products in my area, size, price, beauty of the plants. In the meantime I crossed my fingers to hope this plants will survive as they came half dead, wrapped in tiny boxes. And charging that much for "restocking fees", won't make it worth the trip to the post office. I hope this help someone out there.

Excellent experience
April 12, 2021

Ordered a pink dogwood tree (3-4 ft.). Great communication about my order including keeping me updated on the order and shipping process. Order arrived on date expected. The tree arrived potted, with a moist soil mix and protection to keep it from drying out and spilling. Tree had new leaves on it and is perfectly healthy. I have since repotted it and hope to get it planted this week. The purchase experience met my expectations and will buy from FastGrowingTrees again in the future.

Ordered 2 Crepe Myrtle trees. They arrived dormant in large plastic buckets. We had them in the ground within 48hrs. After 2 weeks, they are doing well and starting to produce early season foliage (early April). Very pleased with the quality of these trees. Worth the price.

Impressed First-Time Customer
April 11, 2021

Ordered a number of trees, all but one arrived in good condition and are looking good in the ground a week later. One tree arrived snapped in half (during transport, I'm sure). I sent a message to customer service, and they shipped me a replacement immediately, and it looks great and happy so far!
