I had a problem with the first tree.
July 18, 2024
Updated review

The first tree I ordered wouldn't bud out and Fast Growing Trees promptly replaced it with a bigger tree which is growing fine. No questions asked. Great company to deal with and and would definitely reorder.

All the dirt was off from around the plant and in the bottom of he bag, leaves are distressed. I wouldn't spend this kind of money for such a small, poorly conditioned item

Great products and service
July 18, 2024

UPS destroyed 2 hydrangers that were on their way to me. Gena was able to reship the order and although it went through UPS again the hydrangers arrived mostly in tact.
The only issue I had was with UPS. Fast Growing Trees did an excellent job making everything right

Windmill palms are typically $100 per foot. I spent a little over $600 for 2 of their "extra large" 15 gal trees to get 2 palm bushes. They came in 4'box and the root ball was 15 gal of dirt… not root.

Not a great experience this time
July 18, 2024

The first weeping cherry tree I ordered arrived with a broken lead branch. Customer service was great and quickly sent me a replacement… which arrived with a poorly compacted root ball and leaves that had been heavily eaten by bugs (over 50% of the leaves had damage). This time customer service took a bit longer, but eventually I decided to take a store credit and try again another time, as it appears those trees are not in good health at the moment.

Product good but slow shipping
July 18, 2024

Happy with product but shipping took a couple
Of weeks. I would definitely order again and plan for slower delivery time. Possible that this was all related to carrier only.

Order a butterfly bush for my Aunt for her birthday and was shipped a dead plant. Getting a refund was easy but would much rather have had a healthy plant shipped.

Cut the top off
July 18, 2024
Updated review

I received a Rainier cherry tree that he top of the main stock had been cut off, ( I'm sure to facilitate shipping). This will stop the vertical growth of this tree. Explain why you would do this?

Misinformation
July 18, 2024

I purchased 3 gallon dappled willows when we were planting we notice that they were quart size. The quart size bushes obviously had been put in 3 gallon pots because all of dirt fell off the as soon as we removed from pot with the exception of the original quart size container shape. That is so under handed!

10 Fruit trees
July 18, 2024

Bought 10 fruit trees: 2 plum trees, 2 fig trees, 2 peach trees, 2 cherry trees and 2 banana trees.
The trees were shipped in a boxed, for the price I paid, I thought the trees were going to be more developed and sturdy but they hardly had any leaves, hope they don't die because they were expensive.

Rose tree

Didn't look anything like the pictures. Arrived half dead. I finally got the green coming back on it and finally have one bloom. I've been extra careful with it since it was delivered in such bad shape

Shipping was rough on the plants. They were packed in such a way that while shipping most the plants were crushed and most the soil was in the box not the planters. Hoping the Bing Cherry will survive and one of the roses was in poor shape. But I'll do what I can to help them both heal. They weren't packed very well and the rough handling with shipping was more the problem.
I will still order more trees and shrubs from you...love my plants.

Pineberry Purchase
July 17, 2024

I purchased 4 pineberry plants, which arrived in unhealthy condition. Some leaves were yellow with black spots, and now my healthy strawberry plant seems to be developing black spots. I've sent a message with photos but I haven't heard back from customer service.
