Good Record
November 19, 2025

I ordered 10 trees over a year ago that were not ideal for my location and I was given timely support and advised on trees that would meet my needs. My trees are doing great but now I want two more. I trust that they will be a healthy match.

Final check out page should seemlessly apply all coupons. Website design redundancy and was already applied on previous checkout page. Other than that - love Fast Growing Trees.

I ordered an avacodo tree at Christmas time and it did not survive. We kept it inside but it didn't make it to spring. I contacted Fast Growing Trees and they honored their one year guarantee. I ordered a different type of tree and it is flourishing three years later. I appreciate a company that appreciates and respects values its customers. I have ordered again and am looking forward to eating the fruit from our new tree.

Sky Pencil delivered unharmed. Easy to plant. Hole dug twice the size of bucket, added crush-run in bottom of hole, added some black cow and big daddy garden soil. Used shovel handle tip to pack soil removing all air pockets.

Fast growing trees is okay but SHOP is not. They take your info and bombard you with emails, plus getting delivery info from them is impossilbe. I would not have purchased from you because of shop unless i had to in order to get this plant.

Great plants, good price
November 17, 2025

I previously ordered the green giant arborvita in the smaller size. Was very pleased with the healthy potted plants that arrived! Even though I did not get them planted for months, they did very well. I added the booster food since I have very sandy poor soil.

Slim bottle brush bushes

The trees were in great shape upon arrival. Planted two months ago and still look good. We'll see how they hold up over the winter here in southern Alabama.

All trees & shrubs died
November 16, 2025

I ordered several trees from FastGrowingTrees because of their "Alive & Thrive" guarantee and the assurance that the varieties were hardy for my growing zone. Unfortunately, the experience has been extremely disappointing.

My first shipment arrived and the trees died, even though I followed all planting and care instructions exactly. FastGrowingTrees replaced the order, and I paid the shipping fee for the replacements — but the second set of trees also died shortly after arrival.

When I contacted customer service again, I was told they only replace products one time and that they "can't control Mother Nature." However, the trees were advertised as suitable for my zone, and FastGrowingTrees chose to ship them during the hottest part of summer. If the trees couldn't survive shipment in warm temperatures, they should not have been sent at that time.

In the end, I am out more than $650, have no surviving trees, and the company refused any further support. The "Alive & Thrive" guarantee did not hold up in my experience.

I'm sharing this so others are aware before purchasing. My experience with FastGrowingTrees was costly and disappointing.

A little pricey but can't go wrong
November 16, 2025

Prices have doubled but fantastic customer service, quality of trees, and 1 year guarantee keeps me coming back. In the off chance something goes wrong; I've had a few trees damaged as a result of not being secured inside the packaging. A quick email and a few pictures later, replacements were shipped within a week.

Late arrival
November 16, 2025

I ordered my raspberry bushes on Sept. 9 2025 didn't receive them until 10.24/2025. I'm worried that they are not going to make it through the winter because of the late arrival and the size of them.

Customer Service Rocks!
November 16, 2025

I ordered 8 Junior Giant Thuja Trees in 2024, and we found out we were going to move before delivery. I contacted customer service and asked to postpone delivery until we moved, and they agreed to deliver a year later. Once we moved, I called again because we ended up with a smaller yard, and 8 of those trees wouldn't fit on the land, so I asked if we could cut the order in half. They immediately did that and gave me a refund. With that refund, I was actually able to order 2 Maple trees that will work elsewhere on the land because they will not take up as much room. Customer service was so helpful and accommodating. I have purchased from Fast Growing Trees before and only received quality trees and bushes, and I have recommended them to friends looking for trees. I will continue to shop with Fast Growing Trees, and their sales are phenomenal as well! Thanks everyone for excellent service!

Overall positive. Had some issues with broken plants on arrival, which were replaced quickly, and had some plants not survive a winter. I'm trying the two year guarantee this time.

Pomegranate in poor condition
November 15, 2025

Received my pomegranate shrub with the leaves, yellowed and wilted. Some of the leaves have a white scale on them as well. Looks very thin like it will not survive. Submitted documentation about the poor quality of the shrub and have yet to hear back from anyone.
