Great value and nice product.

The trees arrived in great shape and nicely packaged. They have been thriving very well for the last six months. Looking forward to see what they look like in a year time.

I've ordered multiple pines and shrubs from Fast Growing Trees. I've never been disappointed by the quality. They come very carefully shipped and healthy.

I like that growing trees
January 7, 2026

This is a good business, but not all will grow as expected. I'm hoping for the best this time the trees come in good shape. I guess it depends on your soil. I haven't had the best experience. I'm sorry to say I have to be honest.

Rolling the dice
January 7, 2026

One of the grafted trees I got from you guys was supposed to have multiple varieties of peaches. By the third year. When it finally started kicking out flowers and fruit, it was all the same variety. As a matter of fact, they didn't ripen until late September early October and they were all the same. However, the other grafted tree I got from you guys was top notch so I'm rolling the dice. Because the last grafted tree that was supposed to be peaches was at best mediocre caning peaches of one variety

Convenient
January 7, 2026
Updated review

Very convenient online shopping. Excellent selection of plants and trees. Good information package very useful to customers. Shipping has been an issue, though. Plants can arrive upside down, with damaged leaves and/or loose soil. Note that more often than not, once planted, plants recover very nicely.

Ordering is easy; plants are healthy, but plants arrive stressed due to rough shipping and handling.

Always received healthy trees
January 6, 2026

I purchased a magnolia tree around 2 years ago from Fast Growing Trees, and it is thriving. This will be my third magnolia tree. The other two I purchased from local nurseries and swap meets died in the first year. I am super excited to see my tree remain healthy and grow to maturity.

Everything I have purchased here has exceeded my expectations. They were packed so carefully for shipping and arrived in near perfect shape. You all are my "go to" when I think about plants.

Never a bad experience! 90% of my garden has been supplied by this company and I have no complaints! I had three plants that died and just like their guarantee states, they replaced them. I should but stock in this company as much money as I have already spent and what I will spend in the future🤣.

The two trees I ordered looked healthy. I planted immediately and they seemed to thrive. Over the summer I lost them. The company after reviewing my situation replaced them. Other trees I purchased from them are looking great!

I've received good trees from Fast Growing Trees. I have solid ones. My only disappointment was that I purchased 11 of the same trees last year but the order was canceled because they had some kind of "fungus."

Shipping is prompt; no issues. One time I did get smaller plants than ordered but I let it go. The plants themselves are always good and well packaged. Excellent store for what you need or want.

My previous experience was really not good. I bought several items in which Two passed away or died and I tried to do a claim which was very complicated and I lost money. Thank you for asking.

Great Company! Awesome Plants & Trees & Customer Service
January 5, 2026
Updated review

I am fairly new to plants and gardening and this company has treated me like a VIP from day one. Offers phone help and assistance anytime I needed, credited my account anytime something went wrong, and just always does the right thing. If I order a 1-2ft variety it will almost certainly come at the larger size which I love! In 2 years time I have accomplished a lot gardening at my home and I don't think I could have done it without Fast Growing Trees, or have been any happier with their plants and trees, and of course their friendly service! Thank you! Good service and quality goes far these days in a world where I feel it doesn't always exist. Thanks for making gardening in my retirement, rewarding and fun.

So, I'd give Five Stars, but Fed Ex delivery system does not handle these packages with care. Too often the shipping has damaged the plants and trees. Now if that were the end of the story, I'd only give 2 stars maybe not even, but the company itself has always done right and reshipped or given my money back. They are a five-star company in my opinion; it's Fed Ex that sucks.

A bit pricey but I think it's worth the price. I am creating a food farm in my South Carolina backyard, 98% of the trees are from fast growing trees, they are all under 2 years old, can't wait to reap the rewards of growing my own food.

Dogwood tree died 6 weeks after planting as a memorial to three dogs that were family pets. No reason for tree dying. No replacement trees available. Waited till you had one to try again.

My Meyer lemon got cold in shipping and it lost all it leaves! The stem stayed green. I purchased grow lights and placed one on each side. It started sprouting new leaves almost overnight. Leaves are big, bright green and full! Renamed-HAPPY LEMON! Even sing the lemon song as I tend to it!

I will take the blame for this. I did not expect the severe frost we got soon after ordering the tree. Should have kept it in planter inside. That is why I did not file a replacement claim

Does not value long term customer
January 3, 2026
Updated review

Made it difficult to collect on warranty. Warranty did not cover full refund. Did not cover shipping costs I had to pay to receive the tree. Would not give any concession to a very long term customer who has purchased dozens of trees from you

Inconsistent and no customer support
June 8, 2018
Previous review

Plant material is inconsistent. Some plants/trees were good and others were weak or undersized. No way to contact anyone by email or phone. I contacted thru customer service but it took 3-4 times and weeks later received a response.
