Have ordered fruit trees previously and very pleased with the way they arrived. However the last order of two butterfly bushes and 3 citronella plants arrived in very bad shape. Wilted and many brown/dead leaves. Have planted them and will see if they survive. Not the best experience and not the quality I expected.

Disappointed
May 19, 2021

The size of the tree was not what was represented on the website. It was much smaller for the price I paid.

Trees are half death
May 20, 2021

Ordered two dog wood trees and fertilizer, all packed together with a single box (with a free small Japanese maple tree). Box was left at my mailbox area at the street instead of delivered to my front door. Both trees did not look healthy. Planned for two weeks now, watered every day. 1 tree and the free maple tree don't seems to make it. Should of order from Amazon or Costco which is much cheaper and better.

Box arrived with the pot on its side. Planted the next day and watered but they are not looking good. One already died.

No root system
May 19, 2021

I bought 5 peach trees, 3 different varieties. Of the 5, only 1 had roots. Regardless, I planted the small root stumps the very next day I got them. It's only been about 2 weeks and most of the branch ends are dark brown. I'm not optimistic about these growing. I failed to look up the warranty before I purchased, so when I did, big surprise. They don't really have a warranty. It may be too early to write a review, but it was requested from the company. I hope I haven't made a $650 mistake. I guess time will tell.

Overall good experience
May 19, 2021

I ordered fruit cocktail tree, 4 in 1 pear tree, japanese maple tree and pink dogwood tree. Three of them came in one big box and the other tree came in another box. I wasnt informed that there were 2 box. I got one tracking number so when the box was delivered I had to call their customer service due to one missing item. The customer service lady I talked to was very helpful and told me that there, another box coming. They also replaced the tree with broken branches. Overall a good experience

Japanese Red Maple
May 19, 2021

Ordering experience was excellent. Discussed the Japanese red maples that would thrive in Texas. Received detailed information as to which one would grow here. The tree arrived in a timely manner, well packaged with planting instructions. The tree is still alive and seems to be doing well. Very well satisfied.

Charged when could not ship
May 20, 2021

I tried to buy a lemon tree. I was charged. And the order was confirmed. Then told after a few days that you could not ship to CA. This should be caught at the order level rather than keep my money for weeks…

The shipment was received terribly damaged. The was no protective packing materials inside the carton. The Plants and their containers were crushed and upside down. Although I sent pictures and emails it took 3 weeks for the company to even acknowledge or respond to me. Soil was spilled out of the bags. Terrible customer service. Inept shipping department. We threw way 3 plants and the others all had most of their leaves broken off inside the master carton.

Our first order was two Lapins Cherry trees and the second Hosui Asian Pear tree and a Harvester Peach tree. Shipping delay on the second order, but after planting they seem to be adjusting well. However, one of the cherry trees lost all leaves and does not look healthy at all and the other doing great. Will be following up on the one tree.

Rose bush order
May 19, 2021

Read all the glowing recommendations and thought I'd give them a try by ordering 8 rose bushes.

The way the bushes were loaded with 2 per box (what may have been secured during initial packaging) with the plants facing each other is a bad idea. They really should have put some plastic dome over each bush. During transport and handling the plastic pots came unsecured and crushed/broke almost all of the rose bush stems (all 8 suffered damage).

Fortunately, they had good roots and enough unbroken smaller branches, that when planted and watered well, seem to be coming back with good growth.

Really need to look into something like a plastic dome cover on each base and better "fragile/handle with care" signage on outside of card board packaging.

I expected a more filled out pear and lemon tree, but the pear tree was just a stick with a few leaves on it and the patio lemon tree was very small with 3 tiny green lemons on it.

I made simultaneous large purchases from FastGrowingTrees.com and TheTreeCenter.com. Many items from FGT arrived damaged, lots of broken branches, and just overall looking sickly, while all items I got from TTC looked amazing and well packaged with very minimal leaf loss or branch damage.

Good packaging, poor product
May 20, 2021

The product arrived on time, but the product was nothing like what you view in the adds. The trees are more like wild weeds they dug out the field and shipped. One of the trees still don't have any buds or leaf's.

I ordered three blueberry plants and some solid and root growth and when my package arrived I had four packages of the root growth stuff only two packages of organic soil and a Bob Ross planter no blueberry plants which struck me as odd I called right away and two weeks later I got three blueberry plants not sure why the invoice said I should have gotten them but we're not in the package so my feeling is I am not happy with how your shipping works and my not buy again...
