Get ready for a bunch of emails
April 22, 2022

After the purchase they will send you aggressive emails wanting you to review your purchase. It never ends so I keep leaving bad reviews until they stop.

We're so sorry to hear how your tree arrived! Shipping stress can cause plants to wilt and even drop leaves but typically make a full recovery! Being that we are plant people, we always like to ask our customers to give the plants a chance and not to give up on them too early. Please do not worry, we have your plant covered 100%. Just check back in with us if for some reason it begins to decline and we'll ship a new one!

Pleasantly Surprised!
April 21, 2022

I was reluctant about ordering trees on line fearing they might get damaged during transit and was unsure about the quality. I've now placed 3 orders with FGT and am quite happy. The plants were well packed, healthy and seem to be quite robust! Great! End though I'm sure I'll still visit nurseries and Garden Centers, I will definitely use FGT in the future for an extensive selection, fast shipping and top plant quality. Two thumbs up.

50/50
April 21, 2022

Ordering is easy but the quality of products recieved was 50/50. Both Banana trees showed up in perfect condition!
However the Valencia Orange tree is basicly a 3 foot stick and suffered leaf damage in shipping from the neem oil box that crushed them. The main trunk of the tree is kady wompus due to the poor branching choice used for the graph and as a result wont grow straight and will be a source of issues in the future. I will probably cull this tree and buy another from some where else due to the odd trunk and future issues.
And the Meyer lemon bush was very sub par, the leaves that were there got crushed and are heavily damaged. The bush was also cut back very heavily to the point that theres sticks off the main trunk. It would have been great if they just left the growth! A 1 gal is small to begin with and now i have to wait much longer for it to fill out.
The Valencia and the Meyer were NOT worth the money i paid.
Over all im not really pleased with the total experience and will look else where for my other fruit tree purchase.

Elderberry
April 21, 2022

Purchased the Elderberry plants

The shipment arrived pruned back to encourage root growth so it basically looked like a stick with a couple of small cane buds on it.

Put that lil stick in the ground and watered it in. Fast forward a couple of weeks and there are canes starting all up and down that lil stick. I expect vigorous growth this season.

Very pleased with the product and will be making other purchases with Fast Growing Trees.

Half dead dracaena massangeana
April 21, 2022

I ordered 3 plants. A palm (it's ok, small with only 3 branches but appears healthy enough), a ti plant (absolutely gorgeous, lush, & healthy), and a dracaena massangeana or corn plant. Two of the smaller stalks of the corn plant look beautiful and healthy. The larger stalk is clearly dying. Yellowing droopy leaves and brown tips which continues to get worse despite my efforts to save it. I was sent an unhealthy specimen. Unfortunately for me, I had meant to purchase the plant guarantee but forgot when I placed my order. I'm wondering if they purposely send the less than healthy plants to customers who don't purchase the guarantee. Pretty dissatisfied with my purchase overall. The ti plant is gorgeous though.

We're very sorry to hear about your plant and assure you we would never send out a poor specimen just because the warranty is not purchased. We have reached out privately to help!
