It really is too easy.
March 1, 2026

I have had an overall great experience, even with losing three trees within months of transplanting and a few shrubs as well. There is always a risk when dealing with plants but the service (thus far) has been good though I know I have two more claims to make before I let the year run out on some peach trees that I thought were doing well but died early autumn.

Use at your own risk
February 28, 2026

Great idea and lots of variety but the care of the plants and shipping is pretty bad. I'd say its a 50/50 chance the plants arrive undamaged or without mold. Had multiple trees and other plants arrive badly damaged or covered in white powdery mold. Was offered credits but really have no faith future plants will be of good quality.

Healthy Trees
February 28, 2026

I've purchased several Chinese apricots and one summer crispy pear trees. All arrived in excellent shape and form, and all are thriving in my yard. I look forward to spring to see them bloom. Hopefully, I will have fruit from all of them this year! Thank you!

Found what I wanted and received a healthy and growing plant. I also like that I can purchase larger plants that are already very established.

Well packaged and healthy. It was very exciting to open my new hydrangeas. I was amazed how quickly they bloomed and grew. The second year was stunning. I just ordered Incrediball and sure they will be just as lovely.

Plants ready to plant when they arrive.
February 28, 2026

I have a small peach tree a few years ago. It has grown well over the years. Only problem is I have had with is that the small peaches it produces bruise easily so I only get a few peaches each season from the tree. Last summer it produced at least 60 peaches but I ate about 3 of them.

I have always been impressed with your company. Your trees and shrubs arrive in better condition than the same items purchased in the local nursery.

My recent first order was for a Lemon Meyer tree. It arrived on time, fully packaged for transport. I have received messages from Customer Service asking how everything went, and if I had any questions. This type of service is very rare these days!

I received my fiddle leaf tree distressed due to the excessive heat in the Texas summer. They replaced the tree and it was beautiful.

I have purchased several plants and trees from Fast Growing Trees and they all have done well except one. I notified them about the demise of the plant and it was replaced with no hassle whatsoever.

Happy with experience
February 26, 2026

Ordered 25 flowering shrubs two years ago - all arrived in perfect condition when ready to plant in our growing zone. All thrived giving us (and our neighbors) a beautiful display and years of pleasure. I appreciate the planting information provided on the website in order to select the best plant for each site and conditions in our gardens.

I previously ordered a certain plant late in the season. Unfortunately, when it arrived it was "on its last leaves" and didn't survive. FGT gave me a refund because a replacement wasn't available. So I'm now reordering two of that same plant but earlier in the season. 🤞🏼

You have always met my needs and have always stood behind your guarantee, which I believe I've only needed to use once. If you would, can you please label these delivery instructions on the package as well? (Deliver too the House up the long lane which is just off the Highway thru the White Fence.) I've had a few orders that were dropped off at my neighbors house in the past. Thank You

Last year was my first purchase from Fast Growing Trees and we were largely pleased with the purchase, the trees, the guarantee and the shipping. The trees appear to be making it through the winter. Looking forward to this spring.

I ordered an American Sycamore tree and a berry bush. The berry bush was affected by a freeze but it is still alive. The tree has grown another foot and has lots of leaves. I'm very pleased with my purchase!

Seems to be a reputable company.
February 25, 2026

When ordering smaller plants they arrived in good shape. When orderig larger plants (2-3 feet) they arrived in bad shape due to poor handling. When ordering a six pack they arrive in two boxes of three. They are long and spindly boxes and arrive crushed in the middle from the weight of the plants in the ends of the box. Maybe two plants per box would make weight and shape more manageable for the carriers to handle properly. One order was beat up so bad two of the plants soil was out of the container and inside the plastic cover. They didn't make it. Had the same thing happen on another order but only one plant didn't make it. Hoping for better results this time.
