Holly bushes
April 11, 2022

Many great trees and bushes to choose from. Good cost, great service. The bushes were very well packaged for shipment, and we got them just as advertised.

Waiting and watching
April 11, 2022

Quick helpful/received product promptly... followed instructions - am basically waiting to see results - these are fruit trees and will take some time to root and thrive - did our best to plant properly - lot of wind in the area... used a gauge to check soil conditions. So time will tell

I already sent a review and put a lot of thought into it and now I can't re-create that a second time so I hope you got the first one I've given you a five star rating I'm happy and I appreciate your effort to make me a satisfied customer.

Wish I found you sooner
April 11, 2022

Great selection - I was able to search not only on zone, but plant features. I selected a number of fantastic flowering bushes for an ugly fence cover and a beautiful flowering rose bush for a deck trim. Everything was delivered in perfect condition - healthy and ready to plant. BE READY FOR THEM TO BE DELIVERED - they will arrive faster than you think. If you still have work to do before the plants arrive, get it done first - my plants arrived in two days and I wasn't totally ready... I thought it would take longer to ship!

Trees
April 11, 2022

The woman I talked to was great. I AM WONDERING IF YOU CAN HOLD OFF SENDING THE TREES UNTIL THE END OF APRIL. I HAVE HAD TO PUT MY MOM IN A NURSING HOME, AND HAVE A LOT ON MY PLATE.

Damaged tree replacement.
April 11, 2022

The first tree arrived broken and after a short call and chat I was told I would receive a replacement tree. It arrived in record time and is absolutely perfect. I have already spread the word to friends and family what a very conscientious customer service department they have.

Beautyberry Shrubs

The four shrubs arrived quickly and in good health. I planted them and they seem to be doing fine so far after about two weeks. They are coming out in leaf.

Great experience
April 11, 2022

Ordered a tree and 4 rose bushes. Website steered me to cheaper rose bushes, which was refreshing. It all arrived quickly by FedEx in boxes. I couldn't plant the tree right away so it sat in the driveway in it's box for a week just fine, and with the box I was able to put it in my car on its side for no mess transport. It is now thriving. The packaging makes

This site does not tell the truth. Their trees that are considered the "Fastest growing trees" are only for states north of Tennessee. Yet they have pages that say they are the best trees for Austin, Texas. When you go to other sites that are blogs and chat rooms you realize you have been had. I reached out to them and asked for a refund and they told me I had to ship them back which was super expensive. My trees have been in the ground for several weeks and have not grown an inch. Wildflower.org states they will not last two years in the Texas climate. You have been warned.

Real Professionals
April 11, 2022

Kudos FGT. For packing the trees like you do it for a living. The delivery guy didn't give a damn about all the signage on the box. The bag with the twist tie did the trick. Wow what root balls. Moisten them for ease of pulling apart. Three weeks in, regular watering all doing well. Can't wait to see how much growing they do.

Topiary gardenias
April 11, 2022

Purchased 2 Topiary Gardenias. The leaves dry out every day & some leaves are yellow. I feel the dirt every other day to see if it's too dry, or not. Considering the cost, I would hate to have them die when I've only received them 2 weeks ago!

$99 for 3" tall windmill palm
April 14, 2022

We were shocked to find that $99 bought only a 3" stalk with 12" fronds. While the ad stated 3 Gallon, we expected at least a few foot tall stalk.

We're sorry for the delay in your order! It looks like you are in one of our colder growing zones so we have your order delayed for shipping until Spring. We have reached out privately!
