Great Customer Service
July 29, 2022

They were very helpful in getting my fruit trees established and when my peach tree did not survive they sent me a new beautiful one. I will buy all of my trees and plants from them.

At this point, I would give a NEGATIVE ZERO as fastgrowingtrees.com just continues to avoid their responsibility for sending dead trees (2 out of 3 avocado trees were dead!).

Very happy
July 29, 2022

All the plants were very easy to find on the site and the ordering process was very smooth. I had a very small issue with two of the plants and contacted customer support and they rectify the issue immediately.

We are so sorry for the confusion! We ship our plants within 1-2 business days, but the time spent in transit is going to depend on where you are located in relation to our nursery.

Small tree
August 2, 2022

When I ordered the tree. It made it seem like it. Would be much bigger, the root at the bottom was very small and i'm not sure it will grow fast. I do hope it will!

Poor plant quality
August 2, 2022

I have twice used this company to send bereavement gifts to friends. I am a fan of planting a memorial. Not only is the delivery faster than quoted in both instances, the products have been absolutely gorgeous - exactly as pictured on the website, which is not easy with a living thing. But the customer service is why I will continue to return. When I say friendly, responsive, kind, helpful, it's only because I can't think of better words! Tina C is a gem. Will definitely return.

Broken trees replacec
July 28, 2022

We ordered 2 ginkgo trees a few wks ago that were broken and in pieces. Fastgrowingtrees quickly replaced them, but unfortunately, they too, arrived broken because one of the plastic zip ties had broken in transit and the root ball of one tree slid in the box and broke the top and limbs off of the other tree. Once again, the company was good enough to ship replacements, and this time the trees were shipped separately. Both arrived in excellent condition in spite of the fedex driver standing the box upright on my front porch rather than laying it flat, as indicated. The trees are healthy and beautiful, and I am very pleased with how promptly customer service resolved the problems.

Willow Oak
August 2, 2022

Ordered a willow oak from FastGrowingTrees.com to replace a huge oak taken out by a storm. When it came, I was hesitant about planting, but I did anyway. Every time I looked at the tree I saw the double leaders. Tree had a single trunk only about 3 feet up, then went to competitive double leader. What will happen when tree gets some age on it, the tree is prone to split. Called company back and after several conversations they sent me another tree. They told me they would be sure it was correct. Pulled up first tree getting ready for replacement. When it arrived, the same problem. Never again! I looked up local nursery who sells wholesale only to request one of their local dealers to buy a tree. The nursery told me they would sell me a tree in October when it is the beginning time of year to properly transplant. I'm getting a tree with a 6 inch circumference, 1 inch from FGT, and 4 times as high for about twice the money. With a single leader or trunk. Went to nursery and verified. I can sit in shade next summer!

July 28, 2022

I was looking for a tree to fill in a vacant spot in the garden and stopped by Fast Growing Trees. Within 2-days I had my new addition and it was perfect! Well packaged and nice planting instructions were included. I will definitely be a return customer! I highly recommend them to everyone!
