I was scammed! I ordered 6 trees and I received garbage! Not even trees! My fig tree looks like a bush in a pot, the rest of the trees were crocked and very small. I paid one grand for 6 beautiful( as per website) trees and I received equivalent to $150 worth of trees that you can get from any local nursery/homedepot/lowes)
Do yourself a huge favor! Go and pick the tree yourself.
When asked for a refund the company said that they charge 25% restocking and I have to pay for shipping! That means that I have to accept the loss. When asked why were my trees so ugly and small,, they said that they can't compete with big stores and it is what it is!
STAY AWAY. I am preparing to file a lawsuit with General Attorney for fraud and false advertising.
See the picture for 5 gallon fig tree. It came in a gallon pot and it is a bush with multiple roots. Not a tree
Very informative website. Easy to find the tree wanted. Helpful advice for planting
Paid for10 leyland cypress on 4-25-22., $531.51. The 2 scruffiest died on 5-25-22.
I just came back from watering the remaining 8 today, 5-28-22, and they are all in varying stages of dying.
Less than 30 days, they are all dead, They arrived on 4-30-22. This is not good for the sellers
Reputation.
We're so sorry that your trees didn't make it! We have reached out privately to assist you with replacements!
I ordered a tree for one of my son's for a gift. I looked around on line for quite a few days, and yes, weeks. FastGrowing Trees had the best user friendly site and a large selection. My son's tree arrived in perfect condition.
May be it was long trip for trees they were traveling to me about 7 days and most them came barely alive. All of them been planted next day. Not sure how many will
Survive but Thuja already have discoloration and very bad looking needles
We're so sorry to hear how your trees arrived! We have sent a private message to get some photos so we can take a look and help out!
I ordered a six foot $#*! willow and found to my distress that its leaves were eaten away and the bark when rubbed was brown.
I called and they graciously refunded my money.
Nice user interface. I thought I signed up for $10 off, but the code didn't arrive in my mailbox in time to place my order. What more important is what I got for my money. I purchased a small, weeping redbud that arrived taller than expected, but pitifully scrawny with few leaves. Quite a few had fallen off during shipment in the box. They threw in a small lavender plant for free that was badly wilted and is struggling after being planted. Fortunately, since this was my first experience buying a tree online (because I couldn't find exactly what I wanted in my local nurseries), I paid for one yr of insurance. I hope I won't need it.
She arrived on time in a good condition and it was exactly as it was described. We put it in the ground three weeks ago end it is doing extremely well. I found the quality to be excellent and the value to be fair, I highly recommend this vendor.
Well first trees were dead so wasn't happy 2nd trees u sent are doing better there were some branches broke during shipping but otherwise the trees seem to be doing better than the 1st ones that died 2 days after
I ordered 2 cherry trees and an indoor plant. One of the cherry trees and the indoor plant are doing wonderfully. One of the cherry trees is not. We had previously ordered from this shop and had a great experience, I'm honestly surprised to get a dud from them. I suppose I should have purchased the additional insurance. We would shop here again, just disappointing to get a tree that didn't take.
Tree was delivered with the best box and packaging I've ever seen. Tree was in perfect condition and is growing vigorously.
Product looked healthy and robust. No blooms yet but expected based on the time of season.
Looks half dead. It's going to take forever to revive
My tree was delivered on time and in very good shape. I was hesitant at first about buying a tree online but I would definitely use this company again in the future.
Alisha was professional and communicated what the delays were due to but I had to keep on arranging my schedule to ensure I was home once the trees arrived. I think a small discount or a plant would have helped the issue of delays.
The Coral Bark Japanese Maple 4-5' came in perfect condition! The branches were trimmed and none were broken. The leaves were hydrated and healthy. Super impressed and I will most definitely be purchasing from FGT again!
I ordered 3 trees. One was doing great, one is okay and one failed to leaf out. I called customer service and one was replaced in one week. Great service.
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.


We're so sorry that your plants were not what you expected! Figs naturally grow multiple trunks which will make them look bushier while young. We have been in contact and are trying to help make this right
