We are very sorry for the inconvenience. Keep in mind that they sell their products at a wholesale price where we are a direct nursery where we breed our trees from grafting techniques to ensure the trees we sell provide quality fruit. We take time to care and grow these trees right when you order and we pack and ship them to you so unfortunately we are not able to compete with the big box stores.

I saw some great feedback from others about their purchase and experience with FastGrowingTrees and decided to purchase the Little Miss Figgy and Strawberry Hanging Baskets. The items were packaged really well from the outside. I was very surprised to find the conditions of the items on the inside of the box. The strawberries were too overwatered and came with quite a bit of root rot. One plant was in better condition than the second one. The second one had no strawberries at all. However, I was more disappointed with the Little Miss Figgy. I ordered the more expensive 3 gallon one since it was the larger size available. It was about 15 inches when it arrived. I understand they pruned them before shipment but I was thinking it would be larger? When I contacted them, I was told that my fig purchase was guaranteed to be a 3 gallon container but no guarantee on the size and height of the tree. I don't know why other customers' 3 gallon container trees were significantly larger! The rep also told me to plant my strawberries in larger containers and give them time. Doesn't that defeat the purchase of the hanging basket that they came with?

At this point, I am hoping that the conditions of the tree and plants will improve but only time will tell.

Nothing like the picture!
April 28, 2022

The picture shows a lush 4' tree. My daughter r' VE a single long stem. A "big box" do-it-yourself store had better lemon trees for a quarter of the price.

Happy little trees
April 26, 2022

I bought 12 Nellie Stevens hollies (2 - 6 packs). They arrived quickly, were very well packaged and a very nice size. They haven't been in the ground for that long yet but they are doing just fine.

Fruit tree failure
April 26, 2022

I have ordered and planted two fruit trees about a month apart, and they both appear to be dying.
1. The China (Mormon) Apricot (You're one step closer to your new plants and trees - order #*******005 has shipped!) was planted about a month ago and there is no new growth, and the original leaves are dry and shriveled
2. My new 5 in 1 apple tree looks bad with no new growth since delivery and planting 2 weeks ago. (order # no: *******).

Didn't get what I ordered
April 26, 2022

I ordered a pink dogwood tree and when it arrived it already had a white flower so I called and was told that the soil must be to high of a PH and that was the reason the flower was white and if I corrected the soil condition, the flowers would turn pink. I tested the soil and it was right in the middle of the PH scale where it should be at 5.4PH.

Beautiful plants!
April 26, 2022

I ordered a peach tree and 3 strawberry plants. They all arrived beautifully packaged. The peach tree has small peaches on it already we are excitedly watching them grow. The strawberry plants are already producing delicious strawberries. I will definitely be ordering more from this website.

I got 2 apples and a peach tree. The apple trees are just wonderful, but the peach seems to be dying no matter what I've tried. Its a bit frustrating

Very disappointed
April 28, 2022

Took to long to receive my purchase. Fast growing trees didn't seem to be as compassionate as I would have like them to be, after what they had put my family through. Promise to refund my money, that was a lie also.

Nectarine tree
April 28, 2022

I purchased a nectarine tree 3 to 4 feet tall on April 3rd. It arrived within 2 days awesome but the tree arrived not looking so good. It arrived with bunches of buds on the tree but it is now April 26th and absolutely no sign of the buds getting bigger or even opening up! No flowers and no leaves. I live in Virginia 15 mins from Virginia Beach. Warm weather almost everyday. Absolutely no frost or freezing weather. This tree looks like it is dieing
Also I ordered a plum fruit tree same day April 3rd. I was worried about that one because it came all the way from California to Virginia. It took 7 days to get it. Yes to my surprise it arrived undamaged and tons of green vibrant leaves right out of the box. Beautiful tree. Still growing strong.

Great experience all around
April 26, 2022

I ordered wisteria plants. I received them quickly and put them in the ground right away. The wisteria started growing immediately. I haven't gotten the blooms yesterday but I am sure they are coming soon. The plants were nice and healthy. The are already creeping up the exterior walls. I am very happy and will order from here again!

Hi folks. We bought some beautiful Caroline raspberries. Arrived beautifully. Planted and three days later were no more. Ground hogs ate them. Perhaps provide a warning letting us know which creatures would find them as delicious as we would have. We would have caged them. Thanks.

Disappointed
April 28, 2022

Service was quick. HOWEVER the "tree" I received was nothing more than a stick wrapped in a bag of dirt. 2 months in the ground and still no sign of life
