Some plants came dead. I had to put in a claim. Even though I won't use the quart size pots all lot of them were broken. Plants stems were broken. Checked the site and they were all sold out. So probably shipped what they had left. I blame most on shipping 10 plants in a box. They are starting to bouncing back. So hopefully with the root fertilizer. They will continue to grow. My cherry trees purchased two years ago are flowering beautifully and hopefully some cherries this year. Awaiting until late May to order some gallon size perennial.

Give it a chance buy a little small fruit tree or bush. You will not regret it.

Had some other trees that didn't live very long due to the temperature drop in winter. I believe they froze but unsure and there were no offerings on how to protect them from the cold.

My first order of trees arrived quickly and 21 trees were all in good condition. This gained my confidence to order more plants and shrubs from Fast Growing Trees.

I had to replace a half dozen lilacs that died in six months. The transaction was easy and everyone was willing to help me out. It was great!

My first order of burning bushes showed symptoms of distress over time. Upon contacting FastGrowingTrees, the tips and guidance from the reps have been helpful in caring for the plants.

I have had a good experience with this company in the beginning, but today was the worst. On the phone with them for over an hour and still don't have an answer.

My first order arrived during our winter when the ground was frozen so we have had to keep them alive after finding a place to keep them from freezing out in the pots they came in. I was under the assumption they would come in spring after the thaw and they didn't. Disappointed.

PRICE
The trees were more expensive than the local hardware store for the same species, but those at the store didn't look as good as the photos on Fast Growing Trees, and FGT had a 3-year guarantee for a fair price. CONDITION
When they arrived, some were just under 5' from lowest branch to top, and the tops had been curved by the shipping box. None were close to 6'. They were thinner than the photos and less leafier, less full. But I'm hopeful that the arrival condition won't matter as much because they are still growing and I'm hopeful they will look good. They still look better than the ones at the hardware store, though.
SUPPORT
I responded to one of the emails I receive offering help, and asked for help. A grower responded quickly with great tips, detailed instructions, and reassurance.
SHIPPING
Unfortunately, the shipping system is falsely advertising delivery dates. My address was already entered, and I selected a shipping date and paid extra for it. It clearly said "ARRIVES on" and then showed a date. However, the trees arrived 3 days AFTER the "Arrives on" date. I had scheduled a crew of 2 guys to come help me with the planting 2 days after the promised delivery date, and had to pay them a rescheduling fee for nothing because the trees weren't here. I ended up doing the planting myself. Unfortunately, this experience was repeated on my next order as well! I just placed an order for 2 trees and paid extra to have them arrive in 3 days. I'm probably stupid for trusting the shipping date lies and false advertising again, but all-in-all, I felt I could trust Fast Growing Trees to deliver good condition trees with the 3-year guarantee.

You guys have it figured out. The plants are always fantastic quality, shipping is reasonable; what more could you want? I'll continue buying from this site because you're cheaper than going directly to the nursury and the plants are high quality.

I have bought numerous products from this company and they have all come and been in great shape from shipping. I did have a few with issues and I contacted the company and they standby their free warranty. I think the company is wonderful.

Cost, quality, selection, real fast delivery. My go-to 'nursery. The carrier who delivers the plants, at least last year, was very sloppy and the plants I ordered last year came broken or with all the soil dumped out, with crushed/open boxes. This was a great disappointment. However, FGT took care of this issue. I just hope that they have better packaging for the plants I just ordered because it was a disappointment to receive several that were in less stellar shape. Again, customer service quickly took care of the issue and so I continue to purchase again from fast growing trees.

My cherry tree I previously purchased looks fire as $#*! and my plum trees look hella good as well. My apricot tree is so $#*!ing $#*! this year too, I'm really hoping that $#*! gives me fruit! My damn father ran over my roses and wisteria with the lawnmower on a joy ride it seemed with the dam blades on too that I had got last year from y'all, so I'm ordering more $#*! at his expense. That will teach him to stay the $#*! out my $#*!. Anyways love y'all's stuff it's so TEA!

My Redbud partially died on the top over the winter only one limb made it when it had 6 Not sure if any new growth will come to make the tree have a good shape plus it is leaning in one direction. I was hoping the warranty would cover the partially lost tree but was only told to cut the dead off and hope the tree will come back looking balanced. Not sure how it will look in a couple of years and do not want to have to replace it later when it's bigger.

My apricot tree arrived in excellent condition. I have more confidence in buying from fast growing trees than my local nursery. They just really know what they're doing.

Planted privacy wall of arborvitie last year. Trees are thriving. Also Apple tree and River Birch are doing well and growing.
