Terrible, no feedback at all. Did not even care to respond at all
Trees spent two weeks in garage during brutal cold weather before being transplanted still health on my patio
I ordered 2 lemon trees that were supposed to ship within two days. They never shipped and I contacted the company several times and they kept saying they will ship to give it time even though by that point it had been over a week. After waiting some more without any update I canceled my order.
Trees were delayed in shipment was a bit disappointing but they took care of the issue
Been purchasing from FGT for years. The trees do really well and the staff is helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended :)
I ordered this as a Christmas gift in December. It is now February and while I have received at least 50 promotional emails and an invitation to rate my experience, I have no received the tree.
No tree ever arrived. I sent it as a Christmas gift. I live in Italy and my daughter in Chicago loves Meyer lemons. Ha! I don't know if you are a real company or why the tree never arrived but stop sending me letters on how the plant is doing since it never existed.
Great mail order plants and customer service. My favorite online nursery.
Great quality! Great condition! Fast shipping! Easy communication! Highly recommend!
Except for what I bought, it was unclear whether other peach trees would be shipped during dormancy or until spring. So I only ordered a midget peach tree which can be container grown. If the catalog clearly said that trees would be shipped in the spring, I would have bought more.
Every time I got a text you order has been delivered I would have to go around the neighborhood to find it.
I get carried away when I see your ads. I keep wishing for more land so I can continue to add varieties of fruit trees. I purchased a lemon tree years ago and for some reason, last year the thing yielded like it never had before. So I got carried away and bought almost every citrus tree that you sell. Or maybe two of each. I really love your product. The trees arrive in great condition and in some cases, taller than I expected. Thanks for being a rare reliable company. I have no complaints.
The trees were packaged two per box with the pots on the far left and far right (or top and bottom). And they came undone, so they crashed into each other during shipping so they were badly damaged when they arrived. Plus, I bought 3 quart bottles of SuperThrive which were stuck in the middle of these two trees so that it was banging around their trunks. One tree's trunk was broken in 4-5 places. The other lost all its branches but the trunk was still intact. The third tree was in its own box and had no damage. Bottom line the packaging needs to improve big time. Also, they ship from South Carolina, so if you're far from there, I would pass. I'm in southern California and regret ordering from so far away.
I purchased 2 June plums from them 2 years ago- every year they start to fruit and the fruit then molds or never ripens and falls off the tree. I've been reaching out since we got the trees and no one has been able to help me. Now I have 2 trees that aren't good for anything and a company that refuses to actually help.
Fast delivery, quick customer service response after delivery service error by Fed Ex.
I've bought trees from other places then tried fastgrowingtrees I will never use somebody else agian. Trees are good-looking there just perfect. Can't wait to buy more.
It has been a very positive experience for both orders. Easy and efficient.
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.
