I just got them
April 10, 2018

They haven't grown since I got them. Its been 2 days! Kind a silly to send me a review now. Then you request me to enter a 100 characters? Mmm... well, they did arrive healthy. With no instructions on how to plant, best time of day to plant an how close to other trees.

The avocado tree came with buds on it and I planted it that day. The leaves were curled and dried and look sickly. The buds all fell off and it's clear something's got a hold of it.

Apple Tree
April 10, 2018

The tree arrived very healthy and already has a few blooms! Shipping was fast and the Apple tree was packaged with care to survive the transit! Can't wait to bite into a apple from my very own tree!

My husband and I loved the amount of info found on website. We did a LOT of research on the trees we wanted to plant in our front yard. We're happy with the selection offered on FGT.com as well, but after spending the amount of money, we were a little taken aback when we walked into the local big box store and found the exact same trees for half the price and three times the size we purchased here. Now granted we are paying for quality here and we totally understand that, it still stung quite a bit. Now all that being said... when the order arrived we were one tree short so I contacted customer service, they quickly fixed the order and we had the tree here within two days! It was so easy to place our order, super easy and the very friendly customer service was a welcome experience as well. We have planted all of our trees and are super excited to see them grow through the next few years. I can't wait to see them in the Spring with all the beautiful flowers to look at and to smell... it's the small things like that that make all of the hard work seem so easy and totally worth every single blister, splinter and sore shoulders, doesn't it!?

I will highly recommend FGT.com in the future and I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again in the future.

Everyrhing looked pretty healthy.
April 10, 2018

A couple of trees were smaller than expected, I envisioned something different, the description of it was not there. So it was left to my imagination. But for the most part it was good, the shipping is not your problem, but one of the boxes was set on my porch upside down, thankfully only some small breaks and still looked full and green. And my son was home that it didn't stay that way for a long time.

Thuja Green Giant
April 10, 2018

I ordered (3) 5'-6' Thuja Green Giants and they arrived in great shape. They were packed with careful attention so that they couldn't be knocked out of the pots during shipping. I also ordered (7) 1'-2' foot Thujas and they did less well in the shipping process but I think they will be ok.
I am planting them for privacy and noise control so I can't wait to see how quickly they grow.

Pkg Has Not Arrived Yet
April 10, 2018

Still waiting. Trying to be patient. But the weather is not cooperating anyway.
Not really much else to say until my tree arrives.

Some plants look great. Some are disappointing. Love my Meyers lemon bush. Got a little mangled in shipping, new growth looks a little sick... but it has lots of flowers and smells wonderful. The clementine is so so. Came with suckers at the bottom. The tree has a little leaf action at the top but no real branching and zero flowers. The pineberry came crushed with a few little leaves. It really hasnt grown much. My everberry start for 3.00 is now twice its size. Disappointing for such an expensive plant. My fig is still dormant so we shall see. Expensive for two little sprigs sticking out of the dirt.

Best place to get a tree
April 8, 2018

The trees I wanted weren't available locally, not without dealing with some sort of special order. Fast Growing trees is so much easier, and send right to your door.

If it were not for great customer service, I would be extremely dissatisfied. Fast growing trees advertises trees arrive with root balls, not bare root. Two of the trees were bare root in a burlap bag. Trees also very small for price, not great condition. One of them definitely dead. FGT shipped a Magnolia but overall, I will not do business again.

Finally arrived
April 8, 2018

Initially I gave a poor review because I received no email confirmation and after several weeks no tree. But it did finally arrive in good condition so we will see how it goes.
