I have sent a windmill palm to my niece for her birthday. They are on time and good service I have one now and I sprinkle epsum salts around the trunk of the tree about every six months. It has helped it grow faster.
Replacement Rainbow Eucalyptus arrived today. Has leaves, not cut off at top, very nice looking tree. Will not die like previous one. Very happy with your replacement policy.
Quality is excellent, shipping is awful... trees placed upside down by shipper, no soil on roots, branches broken, etc.
They tax the shipping cost and move that straight to the bottom line. Although legal in SC, it's just a terrible thing to do. Greed is the motivator
All plants ordered previously came package securely and healthy
Plants shipped to me have been healthy and are thriving. I have been very pleased with dealings(plant purchases) with Fast growing trees.
Not happy with the tree I bought and was delivered from a northern state instead of San Antonio like my other purchases.
I first purchased a tree in 2012 and that tree and many others purchased for Wisconsin and Indiana have been very healthy and happy plants.
The order I placed was delivered on time and it is thriving.
Great variety on trees but die right under a year. So you'd have to purchase the warranty. I've bought fruit trees from Lowes and local nurseries and they are still Alive and Striving but but these trees don't seem to want to stay alive. I purchase because of variety...
I ordered a 6-7' Live Oak last fall and it arrived well-packaged and beautiful. I followed instructions, talked with a close friend who owns a landscaping business, planted, mulched, watered and it did fine through the winder until spring. I contacted FGT.com and they are replacing. I'm hoping to plant early and water all summer to get it acclimated and ready before winter!
Bushes arrived safely and on time, and were soon put into large pots. Very easy for me to receive them from our Lobby and get them planted.\
Plants delivered on time, in good condition; hydrangea had the most blossoms of any of my plants - even survived New York's hot summer. Will order more next spring - beautiful showing for a city terrace garden!
I received a dead stick and was given the honor of paying more than $100 for it. It is still in the ground, still a stick. Three years later.
I ordered the same plants for the same reason but the arrived in terrible condition due to UPS mishandling. You stood behind your guarantee so I am reordering.
The Black Eyed Susans were very roughly handled during delivery. The boxes were beat up and the plants inside were broken and twisted all over the place inside. I think they will survive but will have to recover with many having broken stems down to the dirt with much of the dirt having been tumbled out of the pots.
Usually arrive in one piece. Carrier here can be the only issue but normally well packaged. If anything goes wrong, they always make it right. Normally goes well.
I ordered a blueberry bush that was BOGO. I ordered 1 thinking I would automatically get the free one, but didn't(my fault). I chatted on line and they were out of that particular variety so they offered a store credit for any other plant which I took and ordered a different variety. Very easy and quick.
The Meyer Lemon Trees were gifts to myself and several others! I did research and found that Fast Growing Trees was reasonable and had great reviews. We are all looking forward to harvesting lemons within the next year or two.
I like the selections Fast Growing Trees offers, but I'm not sure how it will work out being a mail order.
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.
