I had a very hard time with my Ficus. Fast growing Trees honored their policy after we worked diligently together trying to help my ficus thrive in my home. I've never had a problem with plants. I think I might have gotten bad soil or something out of our control because the ficus was absolutely full, green and amazing when it arrived. Thank you to the specialist at FGT

Needing some privacy
September 20, 2025

I planted 8 of the Green Giant Thujas around my backyard. This was back in June and they're growing pretty quickly. They've already grown anywhere from 1 - 2 ft. Very happy with the purchase and quality of my trees. As I'm filling this out, I'm purchasing an Autumn Blaze for my front yard - review to come soon!

Aweful company that doesnt care about your order
September 20, 2025
Updated review

My ordered tree did not arrive. Contacting the company, they offered to send a smaller tree than I requested. I asked them to contact the sender to see if the one I ordered was still sitting there, or if they had one in stock, they refused to even do this. Such a simple reasonable request, a phone call, and that cant even do that. A customer isn't even worth a phone call! Asking to speak with a manager or someone higher up, they refused this too. Told me if I canceled my ordered tree Instead of accept the smaller tree I would get $126. So I ordered elsewhere and canceled, they refunded only $92ish. Contacting them again, they dont care. Aweful company, i will look elsewhere to supply my grape vineyard and future trees. Thank goodness I started out small and found out after only $3k that this company doesnt care about you, your needs, what you ordered, or honoring thier commitments.

I feel a little tricked
September 1, 2025
Previous review

I feel a little tricked. I thought I got 10% for signing up, and then it was offering me a discount to buy more and more; so i did. But then my 10% for signing up was taken away from me. If I would have known that, I would not have bought so much. I would have just stuck with 1 tree for today to see what kind of trees you send, as you gave me a 20% off in my email to try you out.

I planted at peak of 16in high mound of rich mix soil. I planted 4ft tree in May '24. By May '25 it reached 8ft tall and trunk diameter doubled. Over the summer we had a lot of rain and the fruit is abundant. I'm in central Oklahoma and the tree is planted in full sun.

Healthy plants, great customer service
September 20, 2025

I ordered two plants - one came in good health, the other was majorly damaged during shipment. For the damaged plant, customer service was very responsive and quickly sent me a replacement that came healthy and well. 3 months later the plants are adjusting well to their new homes.

Very disappointed and dissatisfied.
September 19, 2025

I ordered a 5-6ft Flame Thrower Redbud tree which was delivered on September 6. The top 15 inches of the tree had no support and was broken and dead. The rest of the tree was drooping and limp and most of the soil was in the plastic bag surrounding the pot. After replacing the soil and watering the tree there was no noticeable improvement, now three days later the tree looks pretty much dead. I notified FastGrowingTrees and received a message saying that they were sending a replacement tree of 4-5 foot as they had no larger ones left. I was given a refund of $12.00, supposedly the difference in cost between the sizes which seems surprisingly little. I would have preferred a refund of the total amount - $165.71 - as I wanted the larger size, but I was not given the option. I have dealt with this company before with no issues but am very unhappy with this experience.
