Cold hardy avocado tree
October 19, 2022

Very happy with the condition of the tree and service received. It went through a bit of shock when I got it but has so far recovered well. They were very accommodating with my concerns and questions.

Not sure about quality
October 19, 2022

Order 2 trees in 1 pot. 2nd tree was a dead 2 in. Broken piece. Customer service was great, sent another pot. 2nd tree there but 1 stick is dead, other might not be. Not sure if it's because fall was coming. I've planted both and will see if it makes it. But for cost I expected better

Knock-Out Rose Trees
October 18, 2022

The rose trees arrived on the approximate date as promised and were appropriately packaged. The agent who helped me with my order was friendly and accommodating. I planted the trees following the instructions provided by the company. I'm hopeful that the trees will survive this time. I highly recommend the company.

Very over priced for plant sizes
October 18, 2022

After receiving my order, I was able to find the same plants at a nursery that I just found (someone told me about). They had the same plants for 50-80% less in cost than what I paid with FGTs. I wish I had found this nursery before ordering from Fast Growing Trees. My plants came in a nice shipping container and were a little dry but in good condition except for one. I did trim the dead leaves off and nursed it back to health and it's fine now. Just disappointed I spent so much money when I could have spent so much less had I found the nursery I did. I will make sure to look thoroughly locally next time before I buy on-line.

It's alive and growing
October 18, 2022

The tree took 4 days to get to California and it came alive and very healthy! It didn't even loose a leaf. Packed differently than others, roots intact with soil in the sack and ready to plant including a stake to support the trunk. I most definitely will order from them again.

I ordered 3 trees. The packaging was enough to protect them but their condition - very dehydrated, leaves had signs of fungus, and did not look healthy.

Good Customer Service
October 18, 2022

The fiddle leaf fig was split into two branches pretty close to the soil making the tree pretty wide and unlike the single stem trees shown in the photos. I explained I didn't have the space for a wider tree and I wanted a singular root branch. They rectified the situation immediately. You should note that these are essentially final sales because they don't pay for return shipping. And

First call about the arrival of a diseased peach tree was excellent, whereas my second call about the replacement peach tree didn't listen to me at all. I sent him pictures of the tree and he kept telling me the tree was fine. Had me do the scratch test on the tree. The truck was fine. He asked if I did a scratch test on the first tree which I wasn't asked to do. He said that he was going to speak to the first rep because he should have had m3 do the same with the first tree.
I'm no expert, but does a scratch tell you if a tree is diseased? He said I should feel lucky because now I have 2 peach trees. I said what I really want is a disease free tree…many leaves eaten, holes in the leaves, etc.
It wasn't a good experience and I'm not sure I'll continue to but from this company.

My purchase
October 18, 2022

Planted tree at end of september. Don't know how it will fare in upcoming winter, will protect it from the winter elements by covering it in burlap. Will know in the spring if it made it through the winter. Tree was delivered in fair condition. Some of the leaves were already dead.
