Ok but not great
Terrible job shipping the plants. Came upside down with dirt out of pots. My gardenia died.
My plants arrived two days after ordering. Everything looked good right out of the box. When I planted my gardenias and white dogwood they started growing like crazy! I will be buying more plants from FGT. It is nice to do business with professionals.
Everyone laughed at me for ordering a "twig" online, but my "twig" has grown to a legitimate tree in 3 short months. I would have paid 3x as much at my local nursery for the same tree.
Delivery was fast and the packaging was strong/secure.
Great experience and so glad I came across this site.
I am an experienced grower that rarely loses a plant, but out of the 5 Green Giants I purchased from https://www.fast-growing-trees.com/, two have died and a third appears on its way. According to my local nursery, the root balls were too small (most likely to save on shipping costs) to support them in the dry Midwest climate. I asked if they could replace the 2 lost with smaller trees (not as much root damage), and they replied that they would be happy to give me store credit for a little over $100 dollars, which would retroactively pay for the warranty. Every nursery in my area and even the big box retailers warrant their plants for a year without extra cost.
Satisfied, but the plants were delivered upside down and they were
Not happy about hat. I think maybe your boxes should have an arrow
On them. Some delivery people do not know how fragile plants are.
Anyway, plants are doing well and we are all happy now.
Thank You

Plants arrived pretty beaten up. But eventually survived. Still not doing all that great. Will likely not order again.
Beautiful, healthy trees. Shipped fast. We are super excited to see them fruit this fall. I will be a repeat customer.
My Royal Empress tree purchased in April is doing well I am happy with it, but my Natchez Crape Myrtle I am amazed it was planted late May and has grown over a foot and has beautiful white blooms all over it. Very happy with my purchase. The temps have been over a 100 for several weeks and 110 for the last couple of days which I'm socked anything could survive in these temps.
Very Very Happy with the Tree from the start Nice Healthy Tree Thank You will order more from you and have told other 's about your company
The trees and bushes arrived in time, prices were very competitive and the quality of the trees and bushes were very nice
My Persian lemon tree, arrived to my home in a very good condition. When I opened the box, I found a beautiful, big, healthy and all the leaves were dark green. Three months have passed and my lemon tree don't have a yellow leave and have a lot of new branches. Thank you for sell so beautiful trees.
Ordered a mango tree. The tree was small and i was afraid whether it will survive. But it did. Thanks. The shipping charge is too high.
Quick ship, good packaging, but I didn't know you were supposed to leave the burlap bag on the root ball during planting. I happened on those instructions on the site after I'd already planted the tree! There should be better printed instructions in the tree box. Also, I thought the tree was dead after I planted it - dried branches snapping, etc. It wasn't, but I think it was pretty dry when it was shipped. The root ball had very little soil around it in the burlap bag, and what was there was dry & flaky.
The tree did recover however, & looks beautiful.
The Leland Cypresses I ordered were supposed to grow 3 - 4ft./season. I've seen no evidence of growth since planted in the Spring, although they seem healthy.
I bought 2 plants, one did not grow as expected. It has been one year, one plant remained small, unhealthy.
I ordered two English Walnut trees and paid what I thought handsomely for the two. The crown of the branches that I got were freezer burned and the root ball was very small. It was trimmed strangely so I pruned slightly so it didn't look so weird. I planted them properly and watered them adequately. It took for ever to see any new green, but I think they are going to make it, although rather stunted.
Great experience, trees were delivered in great shape and they are growing just as they should. Great company to do business with.
My tree came in a box and I was impressed. It was a little over 7', green, and intact. I planted it Asap and she thrived and continues grow. Very cool!
Fast delivery. Tree was in beautiful shape when it arrived. Hopefully I can keep it healthy. Only one flower showed up so it probably won't fruit this year. Looking forward to getting better at caring for it
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.
