I received an email on March 28, saying that my lemon tree had shipped but when I track the package it appears as though it hasn't even left the facility, here is part of that email Your package is on its way to a USPS facility. Sign up to get updates, and we'll send you a delivery date and time when available.

Hybrid Willows
April 4, 2018

Ordered 5 of these 2 years ago and was amazed at how quickly they grew!
Tried transplanting two of them after only one year and that was a little too soon, so I just ordered two more so that I can fill out a hedge on the side of my house. Very impressed with these trees!

Nice product good service
May 5, 2021

I like this company. Overall nice product and always great customer service. As a rule its worth paying s little bit more. My only negative is that one of an order of two of the same product will be obviously younger or smaller than the other. Customer service is top notch.

I will order again!
April 4, 2018

I have ordered 3 Laurel bushes and 1 American sycamore from fast growing trees. These plants were hard to find at my local nurseries. All four plants came quickly and healthy. They were also packaged well and were in perfect shape. I will do all of my ordering from this site and refer to friends and family!

Nurseries provide 1 year warranty for their trees. I purchased 2 "Cold Hardy" avocado trees that promptly died. I do not live in a zone that could be considered marginal for their growth and all of my other trees are fine.
When contacted, they let me know that they don't back their trees. You have to purchase an insurance policy for them. I suggest that you try Willis, Stark or Gurney's. All three are good proprieters who back their products.

Arrived and Thriving
April 1, 2018

I bought two apple trees and a pear tree. Delivery was prompt and what I asked for. After three weeks, all three trees are thriving nicely. I was worried about one of the trees due to a very small root ball, even for a sapling, but it seems that it hasn't slowed it down at all.

Jackson
March 28, 2018

The tree was fine when delivered. A Meyer lemon. Paid $59.00 + $20.00 shipping. After I ordered it I saw a Meyer lemon tree at a Lowes in Marianne Fl, for only $39.00 and was bigger and already in a nice yellow large pot. With the cost of a pot and soil, I have $95.00 total cost purchasing this tree.$50.00 more than if I had just purchased it from Lowes.

The jury is out
March 17, 2018

Tree arrives in good condition, but a few of the leaves have black on the edges, some yellow spots, and several have holes in the leaves. Don't know if this means it has pests, or a disease. I will wait to see if it get worse before contacting the company for a replacement or refund.

Trees were shipped across country, but FedEx tracking was integrated with Fast Growing Trees web making following transport simple. Concern about discolored tips of pine trees was addressed and a promise to keep the file open was reassuring.
