All plants were as described, healthy and obviously superior quality.
The banana tree was poorly packed … such that all of the leafs were broken and the tree was in poor condition. No excuse for the poor packing that resulted in the plant damage.
The boxes arrived and were very banged up. I was super nervous that the trees would be damaged too but I think they were fine. I planted them according to the directions and now I am waiting to see more growth. We have had either super hot or very rainy weather here so I am hoping that they will tolerate all of it and grow successfully.
First they sent me a tree that was for the wrong zone, then sent me another tree that was dead I don't usually complain but it was too much headache, I will not ever use them again!

These folks stand behind their products, and have a wonderful warranty. I trust them for my future plant purchases. Staff are helpful and interactions are productive and hassle free.
Very knowledgeable and courteous folks. The tree I purchased was exactly as they described and, a month later, is still looking healthy. A pleasure to deal with these folks.
2 of my plants were delivered dead. That was disappointing.
Plants arrive smallpox than another site I have used, and these cost more, too. The way the lingonberry's were packed only set themselves up to not survive. And FedEx treats the boxes like they were footballs.
We are so sorry to hear how your plants arrived and that we didn't receive your email! We have reached out privately to get those photos so we can assist you in making this right!
My original tree died in transit due to FedEx delivery delay. However, it was promptly replaced with a beautiful healthy tree without having to make a call to customer service. Thank you for taking care of your customers.
I thought the order process was straight forward and simple. Once I placed my order, processing and shipping was fast. My trees arrived in great shape! I'm going to order 10 more because they are such nice trees, and the price is comparable if not better than other companies.
Product shipped fast, the product description matched what was received. Very pleased.
I ordered and promptly received two fast growing hybrid poplars. Both were large trees (about 6 feet) as ordered. So far so good. One was sort of beat up and dried out. Planted it as directed (I have planted many trees in the past including some poplars) and it is still alive (but just barely). I doubt that it will survive the winter. The other tree is doing gangbusters great and growing like a weed. I guess 1 for 2 is not too bad but 2 for 2 would have been better.

When I received my Crepe Myrle it was in great condition, had easy to read instruction on how to plant. The same week I planted it, it had already bloomed. I was surprised on fast it took off! I will be purchasing again from FastGrowingTrees in the furture!
Last shipment of 6 trees came bone dry, root balls like powder. No leaves just sticks. I had previously received trees and they came with leaves and perfect. Unfortunately this set of 6 came dead

My tree came in perfectly wrapped condition and ready to stand. Clear instructions and great help.
I have been very impressed (2 purchases now) with how well FGT does with packaging their plants for shipment and also with the condition of plants on arrival especially since they have been arriving midsummer in heat and humidity. Plants were fairly priced for the quality of product. Everything is thriving a month after the first purchase.
Both ordered peach trees arrived and looked dormant, or dead. I planted them according to instructions and determined that they were dead after no signs of life and regular watering for 4 weeks. You were quick to replace them and the Replacement is planted and has healthy growth.
When I submitted the order I really thought the trees would arrive in 2-3 days. They didn't. A week later I received an email seeking clarification of the delivery address. I called several days after responding to the email. Your staff is lovely but I was told that they still didn't have a firm idea of when they would deliver. We picked a future date after my short vacation. I assume I will receive the trees soon but the company has not gone out of its way to communicate upcoming details.
We are so sorry for the delay in your plants and lack of communication! We have reached out privately with an update!
TREE ARRIVED BOXED AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT HAS BEEN PLANTED IN MY BACKYARD. CAN'T WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR AND THE FLOWERS IT MAY PRODUCE.
Trees came quickly, in good shape, still doing well. I'm very satisfied. Have better results from here than buying local
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.
