Ficus not doing well
August 5, 2021

I take good care of my houseplants. They are thriving well. Tried FGT for the first time after being lured into their glossy website. Replacement ficus is not doing well. These plants they ship, in my opinion, are inferior

SO PLEASED!
August 3, 2021

We sent the Chicago Hardy Fig Tree to my daughter in Chicago as a housewarming gift. It arrived in great condition, had at least a half-dozen figs almost ready to eat, and she was delighted! The entire process, from ordering to delivery, was seamless. We appreciated the reviews that other customers provided; They really helped us make our decision to go with FastGrowingTrees.com.

I had placed an order for a tree and had paid for it; delivery was to be in September. Meanwhile, the same species of tree became available locally so I called to cancel the order. The rep was polite, courteous (a little hard to understand because she spoke very rapidly), and made the cancellation painless. I really appreciated that.

Poor packaging, wilted/dead shrubs
August 5, 2021

The shrubs and plants I received were poorly packaged. In fact, it looked as though someone had taken the shrubs and just thrown them into a box and sent them off. They came upside down, bent and crushed, wilted, and two were/are dead. I could never recommend this site to anyone.

Love my tree!
August 3, 2021

My tree arrived safely and is growing well. It is still in the container waiting to be planted, but it is thriving with an abundance of new growth.

Edible Bamboo
August 3, 2021

The person I spoke with on the phone was very knowledgeable about bamboo. I was told by a local nursery that bamboo was an invasive species and they could not sell it. The salesperson for Fast Growing Trees said just to plant it in an enclosed trough or similar and it would be fine to use as a barrier between our patio and our neighbors. He also said we could eat the new sprouts that had not been exposed to sunlight if we boiled them first.

Big and healthy

The plant was larger than what I expected and super healthy! It's grown many leaves already in a few week. Packaging was awesome! No damage at all!

Happy with purchase
August 3, 2021

Ordering the Thuja Green Giants was quick and easy. The site is simple to navigate and the trees were delivered with care right to my driveway. Couldn't be happier with the customer service or product.

Trees are not thriving
August 3, 2021

Upon a week of arrival the two willow trees we purchased shed all their leaves, the small tree barely had any when it arrived. We're hoping one of them will survive, the small looks completely dead.

Dead plants, lousy service
August 5, 2021

Plants arrived dead TWICE and all the customer service people were interested was in getting multiple angles of dead plants. They were wilted and BROWN. Not coming back to life!
