A great variety of plants and trees
December 12, 2025

There is full description and information on each specimen that is very important when trying to decide on purchasing. There is also the Chat customer service which gets into more detailed information.

Replacement
December 12, 2025

I reached out because I had ordered 260 trees totally over $10,000 and I had lost 11 of them.
I called, because when I placed these orders over the past from April to July,, I purchased them with the understanding that they were under a years replacement warranty because the website stated that they were guaranteed for a year. When I called, I was informed that no they were not, which honestly, I feel that I was misled at the time of purchase. But they agreed that the 11 would be replaced as a courtesy of the large order but the remaining 249 were not under warranty. I advise that you if ordering make sure that in fact your order is warranted. I was extremely upset that I was misinformed at the time of purchase. I did pay the shipping of the 11 trees. When I order the next set of trees will definitely shop the companies that supply trees to ensure that my purchase is 100% guaranteed.

More knowledgeable phone help
December 12, 2025
Updated review

Got messed around for 2yrs because I kept getting recommendations and replacements for dying trees not suitable for my area. When trying to return some I was told wouldnt thrive by local ag center phone person insisted I plant them anyway. They did die, failed to thrive. Lost another year of growth from misinformation.

Purchased thuja trees several times only to have them die. Contacted horticulturist only to find out they cannot survive in my area and should have been told that when ordering. I lost over 2yrs of tree growth messing with this nonsense. Company did replace with other tress but would be nice if staff answering phones would be informed of what grows where.

Due to a shipping error, I received one tree instead of three trees. I called and explained what had happened. The other two trees arrived within days. Such an easy mistake -- these things happen! And such an easy fix. Just a quick phone call and everything was in order.

Great company to work with.
December 12, 2025

I really enjoyed purchasing from FastGrowing Trees. The tree shipped when it was scheduled, arrived a few days early, and was packed very well. The soil was damp, so the leaves were not dried out.

So far I've had a good experience buying from you mostly for myself but also as gifts. My only complaint is that thought I've bought at least 5 times I see no "points"? Oh well as long as my buys thrive I'm okay! Buying this one to replace a beloved tulip tree that I had to have removed hope this guy can thrive and grow!

Pleased overall
December 12, 2025

I'm pleased with the overall experience. Had to invoke the one year guarantee on 4 items. Two replaced and two credited. One item replaced was in excellent shape the second not so much.

Goodblood Japanese maples 4-5 feet
December 11, 2025
Updated review

A year ago when I ordered 20 Arizona evergreens experience was not great.
10 of the 1-2 feet evergreen died after a week.
You gave me a credit to purchased this two blood good Japanese maples and everything is going well so far.

Date of experience: December 1, 2025

Spent over $330. I sent pictures of the dying trees and was only given $66 credic.
I was told that the trees look dead but that they will get better. Not true. Now they are really dead. Not a good way to run a business!

First time buying.

I've recently discovered FGT and I have no complaints. You guy have a vast selection of plants, ships fast, and your plants are in top shape. I would only see myself shopping elsewhere if I can't find what I need from FGT.

Disappointed
December 11, 2025

Me and my wife had previously ordered two other fruit bushes for my mothers Christmas present this year. When they arrived they looked dead, leaves were wilted, cracked, and looked half eaten. Stocks are brown and dried out.

Not what expected

For the $ paid, the tree was not very small, we could get a small tree like that locally for half the cost. Needless to say very disappointed, i wish the description was more current based on the tree sent.

Packaging/Quality
December 11, 2025

Ive ordered with you all several times, always fruit producers, i have some satsumas, cherry trees, blackberries and blueberries, also a fig tree. Ive personally never had an issue, but this last order I got was blueberries, black berry, and a fig tree. They came boxed up STRANGE, this time around. They had folded up cardboard interlaced with the plants, never seen them come like that, with it closed and tied on both sides. It was IMPOSSIBLE to unpack the 4 bushes and tree, without causing pretty fair damage, Chicago Fig lost a branch, the black berry, and 1 of blueberry bushes lost several branches. They arent dead as far as i know, all dormant for winter now, but have me worried. I have never had to use your 1 year alive and thrive guarantee before, but this was a very disappointing delivery especially after spending several hundred dollars here. With that said, you all have beautiful plants and your grafts are great! I enjoy all the varieties to pick from, and are fairly affordable.
Order #: *******338
