The Dragon Fruit cactus seems to be doing fine but I ordered a one gallon pineapple tree and received a quart sized plant that so far may or may not make it.
Ordered 2 cherry trees and an avocado tree, both cherry trees looked measly when they arrived and quickly died even with watering and nurturing care. Not very happy with the first experience but I'll give it one more try

Trees were just as described. Shipping was fast and efficient. Great price.
I bought the Meyer lemon tree and sent it to my daughter in law for her birthday, it shipped quickly and when it arrived it was extremely healthy, and she loved it!
The tree sent to me was healthy and mostly in good condition, the pot was missing some soil but it was no issue since it was transplanted right into a new one. It's very tall (over 5 ft), and is a bit lopsided but it's healthy and adjusted well. Overall very pleased with my purchase, as well as with the shipping quality!
It took a little longer than scheduled, but my trees arrived in good shape and seam to be doing well after a few weeks. Excited to get some fruit hopefully in a few years.
The pecan tree was approximately 2 inches too big for the box so it appears someone just snapped it off to fit. The pecan tree did not have a leaf on it. Just one long stick (very disappointing for a tree that cost $149.00). The Stella and Black Tartarian cherry trees had leaves that were very wilted. They were planted immediately and it has been nearly a month and they are not showing much improvement. I ordered a tree from another company as a gift for a friend and the difference was amazing. Her tree came healthy, beautiful and well packed. I would not order from FastGrowingTrees again.

My 4 Taylor Junipers arrived beautiful and healthy. But I didn't expect the free Crape Myrtle. It was a tiny stick with one leaf. I didn't give it much of a chance but I put it in a pot with sunshine and water and within 2 weeks it was covered in leaves and thriving. I'm so excited to see this little guy grow.
The trees seemed smaller then I expected. When the package arrived one of the crepe myrtle trees in the box had hardy any potting soil inside it's plastic bucket and most of it was in the bag. This same tree survived the trip to my house, but lost at least 2 inches of growth that wilted, dried up and fell off due to no potting soil in its pot during transit. Overall the trees are growing well, but one of them lost some growth.

I ordered a 7 foot pear tree and Hollywood Hibiscus this year and both are thriving well so far. First of all, packaging and shipping trees is not an easy business to be in, and on top of that any issues can come up in the days following the shipment. This is where the customer service becomes critical. Fast growing trees responded to the reported issues timely and resolved any concerns immediately. Fantastic customer service and terrific variety of plants to chose from
The two lavender topiaries arrived severely damaged and will likely die. I can not understand why these were packaged with the two hydrangeas. The hydrangeas were securely staked and protected and the topiaries were staked w a "toothpick". As a result the stems of the topiaries were cracked and bent at a 90 degree angle.

Trees leaves were brown and had fallen off in the box.

The site and ordering was great, got the trees and got them into to holes I had dug out and ready prior to their arrival. I'm not sure if it's shock but am waiting to see how they do but optimistic they will be fine and come back in full force.

I am greatly appreciative of the condition my plants are packed. Not a lot of people are able to plant as soon as plants arrive. Sometimes one orders cause you may no longer have a particular plant available.
Shopping and shipping were impressive. However, the king crimson came with about 3 leaves on it and they were dried and crispy. The tree is a little rough looking so I'm hoping it's going to make it.
The autumn blaze we bought looked amazing. Full of leaves and life. A bit disappointed in the king crimson.
I've shopped here before and never had a problem. I ordered 5 plants this time and a couple aren't doing very well.
I spent over $350 on two trees, a weeping cherry tree and a Japanese maple. They delivered both trees in one very narrow box jammed in there, which is absolutely ridiculous. How can you deliver two very expensive trees inside a narrow box. As a result the weeping cherry tree is as damaged. The Japanese maple, which I paid over $120 for was about 12 inches high. A rip off! Never again will I use this company!

Trees are packed well, minimal damage as stated but shipping takes too long.
The honey suckle bush dirt was completely spilled with all roots exposed and dry. It is struggling since i replanted. The 2 bushes were fine. Another problem they tried to deliver to 630 Centre Street instead of 638 Centre Street so it took many phone calls and an extra day to receive them. In the future I will shop locally.

The holly bushes were nice, but the container didn't look like the gallon that I know. They assured me it was correct, but I expected larger plants. In the future I'll probably go to a local shop so I can see the size.
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.
