Purchasing process was easy and quick. Received bushes within a matter of days. Plants were well packaged and appeared to be in very good condition. Planted them according to included instructions. At this point plants look good. Will do this again.
This was my first purchase from FGT. I got a one gallon yellow azalea. I expected a seedling barely clinging to life. What I got was a trimmed up, healthy plant with a flower bud on every branch tip, about 2' tall. And it shipped securely in a sturdy box.
Well, the truth is that of the three trees that we have received, one of them arrived completely dry and they sent us another and again it arrived with all leaves completely dry.
It is the Emperor Japanese Maple, I have not complained again because the first one they sent us is starting to sprout something. Although I do not think it cost 120 dollars for one of them or even for both of the ones that I received. Now I have to nurse a plant that might not survive
I ordered 2 crepe Myrtle plants at a premium price.
One of them arrived looking stressed so I quickly tried to plant it in the ground. While planting I discovered a huge colony of bugs that started crawling all around and infested the neighboring plants. Crepe Myrtle Roots were heavily infested.
I have to now get professional help to spray all the plants in my garden to keep them from getting infested.
When you pay a premium price you expect a premium product. I would suggest that your staff should examine the health of the plant including roots before shipping. I'm hoping this plant will revive to the TLC and organic fertilizers I'm putting in it but this has been quite an exhausting purchase experience

Trees came fast well packed and as described can't wait till spring to see the blooms would definitely buy here again
Plants arrived dead, was able to save part of one of the dragon fruit plants, but the other died and both blueberries were dead as well.
We are so sorry that a couple of your plants didn’t make it! We have reached out privately to help!
I paid a premium price for 3 fruit trees this spring and all three appear to finally be dead or almost dead. They were planted in good soil and watered when needed and never did send out new leaves. The 30 day warranty is useless on trees because unlike smaller plants it takes longer to know if they are going to take root and grow or die. I would never recommend buying trees from this place.

Plants arrived as by promised and in excellent condition. Dirt was properly protected to stay in the pots even on their side. Thanks
Sales Representative accurately computed price and order. No confusion, professional and knowledgeable. Matched product to our needs and confirmed growing zone compatibility. Trees delivered promptly and without damage. We happy customers.
Over the years I have had a variety of different citrus plants... but never a kumquat. So I decided to order a kumquat tree from FastGrowingTrees. The tree arrived in just a few days and was the perfect size and arrived without any damage. It had several blossoms in bloom and six small fruit. Very pleased with the kumquat tree and great service provided by FGT.
Trees arrived very stressed, I hope they make it. They look like a Charlie Brown Xmas tree right now.

I think they mailed me a dead tree and wasted all my time

From the website features, to the packaging, the delivery time, and the health of the tree, everything has been an excellent experience.
Received a bad 80.00 plant complained and had to re-complain. Customer Service was great, but the overall plants were underwhelming for the costs.
We're so sorry to hear about your plant but glad we were able to make it right!
I got 6 trees. They were all wilted when I got them. To be fair, it was in the 90s when I received them. I planted as directed, but 3 look like they are not going to make it.
We're sorry to hear that your trees are not doing well! We're reaching out privately to get some photos so we can get a better understanding of what may be going on!
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.
