This purchase was a replacement of an earlier purchase under warranty. The replacement tree was delivered in excellent condition. I set out this tree and it is growing very nicely.
Thanks
I have ordered 3 trees now, one of them struggled and they did not hesitate to send a replacement. That was very much appreciated!
Fast Growing Trees provided me with a hard to find shrub, that was beautiful when arrived. It was 100% in fantastic health, and very green. I'll definitely order from you again.
Very friendly on the phone and very helpful answering our questions. Took our order. Trees came well packaged and very healthy.
We ordered a honey crisp apple tree that looked great right out of the box. Very full and healthy. The Granny Smith looks like a six foot tall skinny pole with one branch and a tuft of wrinkled leaves at the top. The second tree was purchased for pollination purposes of the first, so we hope it lives.
I was nervous about high temps during shipping. The tree arrived with minimal damage to some leaves Very well packed. I had the site ready with a large area dug up. Tucked my little guy in with a generous serving of leaf compost on top. Now to intensive care watering my baby, all season.
Tree arrived in excellent condition. Slight tearing of bark at the graft, but I suspect that will grow over. Too earlier to tell how it will fare over time, but I'm very pleased so far.
I had a problem with one of my orders, but the customer service representative took care of it. They were very helpful and courteous.
They replaced my plant that was not growing after plant arrived and planted
I've purchased all my palms, scrubs, fruit plants from this site and they all are thriving. The best part is having them delivered right to my door.
We bought two cherry trees at a cost of over $200.00. FastGrowingTrees ships by the slowest shipping imaginable: FedEx Ground. Carrier pigeon would have been quicker. It took10 days for them to get here. The trees arrived and they were literally cooked. Leaves black, brown and crispy. The leaves literally crumbled in your hand. Okay. Fine. We'll try again. They shipped two new trees. I expressed concern that IMHO shipping by FedEX Ground is THE WORST method of shipping in my experience, especially for something that is supposed to arrive ALIVE. FastGrowingTrees went ahead and used FedEX anyway, and guess what? 8 days later we received a similar issue. Albeit not as bad, but still bad. Once again the trees were cooked. They look really bad. We had hoped to get the trees in the ground while our landscaper is here finishing a project. Obviously that didn't happen. We did look around locally for Cherry trees and came up empty handed. I am going to do a wider search. I bought on-line because we simply do not have any extra time. I thought this would be convient. I am just unhappy that FastGrowingTrees could not or would not use a different shipping company. Finally, I learned a lession: NEVER, EVER buy live trees on-line. It's a waste of time and a cause of frustration. BTW, we did get a full refund, but this was a huge disappointment.
We have purchased several trees for this area we planted the trees and they have always died. The trees were purchased are doing very well. The arrived looking very healthy.
The tree was healthy and is happy in its new home. If FedEx had delivered where it was supposed to, the experience would have been perfect.
Love the website. I have always had great success w/ the products. However, I received a rose w my last order that did not appear to be in great shape when it arrived. But I have seen so many plants bounce back- it was not overly concerning. However, it has deteriorated very quickly and is dead or nearly dead. I wrote to them on May 30th and received the confirmation that my request was received- but I have still not heard back. All of the other plants that came in are doing great.
The ordering process was very easy and the trees arrived in perfect condition.
I recently moved homes and was unable to take my mature, established wisteria vine with me. So, I ordered this online to start a new one. I am still hopeful that this one will survive, but there's still no sign of any growth or potential blooms.
Package 1 of 2 was delivered on time and everything was fine. Box 2 of 2, which was loaded on the same day by fedex, wasn't delivered until two days later. Those two days or warehouse/truck/handling resulted in a completely dead strawberry plant and a dogwood tree that might not make it.
I spent hours looking at my local garden centers for lemon trees this spring and could not find any in stock. My sis recommended FGTs and I decided to shop here never buying plants/trees online. My 2 Meyer lemon trees and cold hardy avocado arrived looking so healthy and boxed amazingly well! I love my trees! It's opened up a new option for me when buying plants and trees. I love it!
Answer: Cancel your order now before it's too late, go to a local nursery and save yourself some money and unwarranted aggravation, these folks are not honorable.
Answer: I ordered 3 autumn blaze maples. They have been in the ground for 2 years now and have yet to turn red in the fall. I did some research and found that they only turn red if the temperature conditions are right. I live in Idaho and we basically skipped fall this year and went straight into winter. So once again the leaves just turned brown. I am hoping to finally get a display next year.
Answer: The same thing is happening to me. My tree died and they keep saying they're going to make good and nothing happens. Real crooks, this company.
