We'll see
August 11, 2024

The hydrangea plant has brown spots all over the leaves, I planted it, and we'll have to see the results. If the plant doesn't come to life, I will write for a refund. Thank you

I ordered the American Sycamore and it was shipped fast. It arrived nicely packed with leaves and I planted it immediately upon arrival. The tree lost all of the beautiful leaves as I expected however within 10 days it started budding out again and now after about a month has child size palm leaves and is doing nicely.

Tree is growing well
August 7, 2024

I was worried when our Bloodgood Japanese Maple arrived because the leaves were curled and dry. And then they started to fall off! I followed all of the useful instructions on planting and getting the tree situated. But of course FastGrowingTrees know what they're doing and soon new buds and leaves emerged and the tree appears healthy and growing well.

Good delivery experience
August 1, 2024

Good delivery experience however 3 plants, especially 1, arrived with brown tips. The brown is progressing and now affecting 4 of 5 shrubs. Unsure of the cause and hoping it's a normal occurrence.

Replacements
August 1, 2024

I had a few trees that didn't make it, the replacement process was super awesome and no hassle what's so ever. Speaking on the phone with a live operator makes the experience so much better and easier. I'll never buy trees from anywhere else.

Our bushes were pretty rough looking when we received them - the leaves have improved somewhat- we have very few blossoms- it's a new yard and we're not sure yet about the soil quality so there could be several factors at play

Great customer service!
July 29, 2024

I placed and order, and then quickly realized I missed an opportunity of a BOGO. So I placed another order and requested the first one be canceled and had zero arguments! On top of that, the trees were nicely packed and have been in the ground for 2 months and are doing great so far. Thank you so much!

I was shopping for a specific tree, which FastGrowingTrees did have. I was Super excited based on the pictures and description of height. Then I saw that another tree had a 'buy one get one' sale so I got one of those as well! Both images/descriptions made it SEEM like they would be fruiting probably 'soon' (though of course not on arrival or probably not flowering, at least filled out enough to be ready to flower if the weather was right). The reality was. More realistic, but also more disappointing. The shipping was very disappointing. The 'buy one/get one trees arrived around when expected. The Primary tree that I wanted didn't ship with it. I got no communication about this tree, so WEEKS later I contacted customer service. I only asked for an ETA, but got no response to the question- though within an hour I got a shipping notice on that tree.
That tree showed up dried up and with most of its leaves missing today. I know they have a guarantee, but I potted it and am hoping for the best.
I wouldn't say don't order here, they have great variety- just be prepared for reality.

Problem more than fixed!
July 28, 2024

I ordered a 5-1 plum tree which arrived in bad shape and didn't make it. Because they were out of stock and couldn't replace it they offered me a full in store credit refund in which I was able to purchase 2 new plum trees and rose bush with a deal they had going. Everything looks good so far! Thanks!
