First we ordered three maple trees that are beautiful and thriving. Next we ordered four cherry trees. Two arrived damaged and were replaced immediately. Excited to see them grow in like our maples.
Excellent delivery condition. Arrived inside a box from SC to western NY but plant was very healthy, without any damage, leaves were fresh green. It had flowers already bloomed and they were intact as well that even after I planted it few days later it got one healthy fruit which might have been pollinated before the shipment.
Bought a dwarf Japanese Red Maple, it was hard to find. When arrived it was in a perfect package for transport, wet soil and looking perfect. I planted it in a big planter and a couple of weeks later it's looking great.
I have keep come back to order some plants that I am searching for. I've already got several plants from you and all are in top notch quality!
FGT has generally provided terrific quality at good prices, with one notable exception. The last fiddle head ficus that I received arrived in appalling condition, and the guaranty was denied because the tree was not completely dead. I'm now trying to nurse the tree back to health, but it may be past saving. All other experiences were good.
My trees arrived and stayed healthy except one, which was destroyed by a pest control company that destroyed four knock out rose bushes also.
I was impressed with the condition of the trees when they arrived. The service was also impressive as you are kept informed every step of the way.
I ordered a rainbow eucalyptus in 2014, one gallon, and it grew to a height of 2 story building. It was my inspiration tree dealing with cancer for 14 years. It was traumatized by the cold we got this past winter in Florida, and it looks like it died, but I see new growth at the base of the trunk. Not sure what will happen to the upper branches, but I know it is alive!
I keep buying pinestraw, fruit and flowering trees, and perennials to work on making a pollinator friendly space of my property. I wouldn't be where I am in this project without Fast Growing Trees!
We had some trees that died immediately and they did not want to stand behind their warranty. They said the tree wasn't dead, but it was, we took their word and waited but then it was too late and the warranty expired how clever of them>
I received 2 Flame Thrower Redbuds and have been very happy so I make another purchase with the buy1 get 1 and 1 year free warranty of the Kousa Dogwoods. Very nice trees and can't wait to watch them next Spring!
No complaints, every tree I've bought came to my door healthy.
All I did was plant them, take care of them, and watch them grow.
Never had an issue with these folks, always helpful with my inquiries.
Love the variety and the customer support. Since I am new, I like to ask questions and enjoy having the professionals to talk to
It was great until I let someone else mow and they broke 2 of them
I was not happy n don't understand how they could not see them
Our 10 trees arrived earlier than expected, packed well, and preserved. The trees were fresh looking and planted easily. Grilled to see them take root.
My very 1st order was for 50 Thuja Green Giant Arborvitae trees and 50 Hybrid Willows in 2015 I believe. 3 Arborvitae didn't make it and were replaced. They are all between 15 - 20' tall. The willows are all easily over 30' tall. *The biggest surprise bonus - a box full of extras was included at no charge. Those trees were planted near the school my boys went to, a church nearby, next to my bank, and shared with several "green-thumber" friends. Everyone was / is so happy.
Magnolia I ordered last year came with a fungal infection. Instead of replacing the tree, they told me to remove infected leaves, which didn't help. It perished after winter. The oak tree was so flimsy that it was no wonder it perished. The plants are overpriced even after all the discounts they offer.
I absolutely love the four rose trees previously ordered. The blooms are amazing. I look forward to seeing if the Hydrangea tree performs as well. Still a bit salty about the Red Bud Tree, Lavender (planted in huge pots) Red Hydrangeas (also planted in huge pots) planted last season but, did not come back this year.
**************
I bought several types of bushes and perennials and they all grew well, the bush that did not do well, fast growing trees replaced. Happy w/that.
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.
