Weak
May 4, 2018

Trees had a horrible looking root structure. Trees came in damaged with broken branches. Better off getting a tree from a local Home Depot

I ordered a couple flowering quinces, they arrived in great shape. They were cleverly packaged so as not to be damaged, I took them out, watered them and planted them a few days later. So far they look great, although I doubt theyll flower this year Im looking forward to the early spring next year. Very satisfied with my experience.

Flies

Quick shipping, great quality
May 4, 2018

The plants shipped quickly. A couple of them weren't secured in the boxes, so there was dirt all over my porch and driveway from where fedex carried the boxes and set them down. There were also zero instructions on how to plant them, but a quick google search fixed that! The plants were cut back for shipping and to promote faster new growth once planted (I think that's what the email said). They have done excellent so far. They bloomed and exploded with new growth within a few weeks of planting them. They are very healthy, and I would absolutely purchase from this company again.

I have purchased three trees from fast growing. The first one died and they replaced it promptly under the added protection program. The other two are doing well. The customer service is amazing for an online retailer.

My experience with FGT
May 4, 2018

So far, pretty good. The grape myrtle trees have done the best. A couple of the olive trees are having a tough time, but that is mostly due to the tough soil conditions I have on my pad. The cold hardy avocado seems to be having a tough start, but looks to make it. All, in all... pretty good.

Good quality and good servise
May 4, 2018

I've bought 3 trees from this site, they all came in a good shape. I would recommend it if you're looking for any rare tree that you can't find in the stores.

Willow trees
May 4, 2018

I bought several dozen willow trees and all but one were healthy. But one tree didn't make it and now I can't seem to get credit/replacement of the tree.

Previously I tried to order a citrus tree that cant be shipped to my state. I had selected a decorative planter as it was intended as a gift. The tree was removed from my order, but now everytime I want to order anything, the planter is still there and I have to call in the order instead of using the site.

Wonderful Wisteria
May 4, 2018

I could not be more pleased with a purchase. Delivered at the right time for my zone, packaged so carefully and met every expectation I had. I am a first time Wisteria purchasers and am delighted with the health of the plant and the service I received.

Thank you Fast Growing Trees, I will purchase again!

Maple in South Carolina
May 4, 2018

The Japanese Maple came properly boxed and in great shape, ready for planting. Instructions also arrived for its best care. My only problem came when our local deer were also thrilled to see new vegetation. It now has a chicken wire fence around it, and new leaves have appeared. Just the branches haven't returned.

I'm changing my review
May 4, 2018

I had given a bad review after we received our trees. One tree had come damaged and one tree was nothing more than a stick with a couple of buds. We planted them about 4 months ago and I am so pleased with how they are doing. The poplar started to grow immediately. The willow and maple took some time and the maple was the stick. It is now so tall with big leaves - it looks incredible. The willow was the damaged tree and it is looking so good now too. All three are doing really well. Also, I was contacted by FGT after my poor review. They phoned and emailed to see what they could do to help. I am very impressed with the customer service. A great company!

Healthy plants
May 4, 2018

I received my order in a timely matter and the Dynamite Crepe Myrtles where healthy and are growing fine. I was expecting taller plants but they had been trimmed back fairly severely for shipping. I suppose that is to be expected.
