Good trees delivered upside down
December 4, 2022

The trees arrived packed in boxes. They were delivered standing up so that one of the two in each box was pointing downward. All the dirt had fallen out.
The trees however looked nice. Perhaps they could increase the size of the "this side up" artows?

Trees online
November 4, 2022

Fast Growing Trees did a good job processing the order, packaging the product for efficient shipping. The tree was not very "filled out" kind of like a 5' stalk. Fed-ex delivered it to the wrong address but luckily my neighbor brought it over to me. Put it in the ground right away, it lost its leaves, we'll see how it works out, bought the 1 year extended warranty to protect my $150 + investment.

Not Impressed
December 4, 2022

I ordered a North Star cherry tree and an E. H. Wilson Mimosa tree. They both arrived much smaller than anticipated and both trees were in terrible shape. Almost all of the leaves had been knocked off of the Mimosa and the central leader was broken. The cherry tree was infested with bugs and all of the leaves had holes throughout. When I complained, they told me I was to get a full refund but ten days later, I still haven't received a refund. I've spoken to their customer service department and they gave me kind of a lame excuse and said they'll issue another refund and I should see it in 2-5 days. I'll believe it when I see it. Please stay away from this company. You can get much better trees at your local nursery.

What a great tree
November 4, 2022

We were looking for a Lacebark Elm and found one (available!) at Fast Growing Trees. The tree was a good size and well protected by the shipping container. We planted it in a grass strip between the street and sidewalk in full sun.

Trees took too long to arrive
November 4, 2022

I ordered several trees and it took months for them to send me my choice when I purchased, however when it arrived it was not only late but it had some kind of fungus. I hope they get more organized and diligent with their customers.

Don't like surprises
November 4, 2022

I ordered a three apple tree and not a single variety was from the ones I like. I like the certainty to know what I am ordering, this time I rolled the dice and that's what I got. The tree quality was good and the shipping was excellent, but it was just disappointing to know not a single of my favorite varieties was part of the tree.

We're so sorry that you didn't like the varieties on the Surprise Tree! We would recommend looking at one of the apple trees we sell with specific varieties listed instead. Please reach out if you have any questions we can help with!

Very satisfied!
November 3, 2022

I have ordered many roses from Fast Growing Trees and recently I ordered 3 more Double Knockout roses and I contacted customer service and told them that the roses didn't look fresh like normal, they asked me how they could make it right, I said credit me for the shipping charges and sure enough, they did! I thought that was more than fair! Than you FGT!

Very Happy
November 3, 2022

I have order plants and trees several times from FastGrowing Trees and always receive quality, well packaged plants. Shipping time was quick and I look forward to harvesting my Haas Avocado's next year as well as stocking up on Bay leaves from my bay laurel. Thanks so much for your good quality, variety and knowledgeable information on your site!

Thank you!

Customer service was excellent and very helpful and I received my order within a few days. The Green Giant evergreen arrived carefully packed and the tree was healthy. So far all looks good after I planted it a few weeks ago. I'm hoping it will shoot up and create a privacy buffer real soon.
