Our second tree
May 26, 2022

It's a bit of a surprise when you get your first tree! Even neighbors would ask what it was and why we were planting a stick. Trust the process! You end up with a beautiful tree and a husband open to the second one!

I wanted to spruce up some empty spots in my garden. FastGrowingTrees had reasonable prices and stock on things that were not available in my area.

Multiple trees
May 24, 2022

We ordered a Southern Magnolia along with a Fir and a Japanese Maple was included for free. All 3 came packaged very well and just within days of our ordering. They're all looking great! We will order again soon.

Shipping issues?
May 26, 2022

I received my trees in a timely fashion, when I unboxed I noticed 2 out of the 4 trees were damaged a little bit. Since the damage was only on two trees on one side of the box it makes me believe that maybe something was dropped on them while in transit. I still Put them in the ground but the two don't appear healthy. (Possibly dead). Maybe better shipping protection? Again, I'd like to make it clear that the company is great but the shipping quality isn't the best

Allspice tree is DEAD
June 23, 2022

You said the Allspice tree would grow here. BIG NO. Since I got an update on my phone, I am unable to send photos of said dead tree.
The only reason you got two stars is because the Mimosa tree is doing great.

Wonderful company
May 24, 2022

I've ordered twice now from fast-growing trees. No issues first time around, second time my order showed up not so healthy. When I reached out and showed them pictures, they replaced the entire order. Easy Peasy. They really stand behind their products. Order with confidence. Thanks guys!

Listen to your customer.
June 23, 2022

Much effort went into securing and on-time delivery for a Digwood tree (white). Only to learned it was not the right one for our region. I learned of this ince I called to advise of the look of the tree. The Rep. Stated I was ill advised! Now I have to wait until June 1st, take a picture, and call them back for the correct replacement. And this was for the largest and most expensive one they had to offer! Unbelievable!

Did not receive full order
May 26, 2022

I ordered 3 pear trees. Two came in one shipment - beautiful. The third, a luscious pear, never arrived. I phoned FGT to report the missing tree. Waiting to hear what happened in shipping.

Orange Rocket Barberry
May 26, 2022

The plants arrived fine and seem to have survived after 3 weeks in the ground but have lost about 20% of their leaves. Similar plants from a local nurses are doing better. I have had to block emails from you as you just send to many. Plus your ads are showing up all over the place when I do other searches. I certainly don't plan on doing business with you again

We're so sorry that your plants have lost some of their leaves! This is very common after plants are shipped and it's due to the stress of being in a hot box without sunlight. We have reached out privately to see how we can help!

Very dissatisfied
May 26, 2022

I originally ordered two Citronella plants in the middle of April. Paid $75 for plants and huge shipping cost. I had to call your customer service the middle of May to see why I hadn't received them yet. The lady told me they weren't in stock but would I like 3 small plants of them for the same price. I agreed, and received a package a few days later. Inside were only two Citronella plants, that were withered and dead looking. I tried planting them and reviving them, but they still look like wilted lettuce. I have pictures to prove everything if you need me to back all this up.

Waste of Money
May 26, 2022

Tree and roses arrived dead. They replaced them and they arrived dead. Shipping is to expensive for the length of time it takes to get product. Packaged and shipping was awful
I wasted a lot of money and time and they did not seem to care about the customer at all.

Will never buy again

Trees maybe, plants no
May 26, 2022

I tried this for the first time and I think plants are just to delicate to be shipped in a box. I ordered a big grass plant with 3 smaller plants. They all shipped together, one plant already died and the other two may make it, not sure yet. Probably will not do this again.

West Kansas
May 26, 2022

I ordered 4 trees and I received them and 1 was not what I ordered. I called them and they quickly recognized their error and sent me the correct tree. I felt that the trees were extremely tender as if only grown in a greenhouse and not hardened to real growing conditions. I felt for what they cost that they would have been more acclimated to being ready to plant outdoors therefore not satisfied.

Best customer service
May 24, 2022

I had a problem with Fed Ex delaying my order for a few days. When I called to ask about if the tree was still going to be ok. She pulled my order and made sure I received a replacement tree right away. The best service I could ever ask for.
