Good service
May 2, 2021

Trees were delivered very quickly across country and were the represented size. However, I moisture tested the bagged soil and and it was extremely dry upon receipt and the trees were losing a lot of leaves. Planted immediately on receipt and watered until root area read between moist/wet and maintained that for ten days. It appears most of the trees will survive, but concerned that a couple trees will not make due to their condition upon arrival. The jury is still out.

Called to order Nelly R Steven's holly for hedge on 6' fence. (Previous hedge froze in TX February storm). Ordered 9 plants to replace hedge. Represented on phone as 3 or 5 gallon root balls. Received 1 gallon plants about the size of pencils. Spent +-$700. Called to send back and was told at my cost to ship and 25% restock fee. I kept rather than return. Found local 5 gallon plants... 1"+ trunks for +-$40 each. Sorry I fell for this company's adds on Fox.

I have been buying from Fast Growing Trees for the last seven years. It is always a pleasant experience. The few times I have had to talk to customer service have also been pleasant.

Unfortunately, an ice and snow storm killed them two days after planting. The tree rose survived and looks lovely. We can't afford to re-lace them weeping cherry and pink dogwood
But we think you are a good company
Thanks deb

Quick delivery
May 2, 2021

Delivery was quick and the trees were in good condition. They definitely were closer to 1 ft than 2 ft but they weren't damaged in any way

Tree isn't looking so good
May 2, 2021

I've done everything the guide said but the leaves are all curling up and I don't see any new growth. Hopefully it hangs on. It's been in the ground over a week now.

Not sure, too early to review
June 1, 2021

Red bud tree delivered dormant, been in the ground 3 weeks and still no signs of life. Foliage is out on all my other red buds. I appreciate company's that seek reviews and maybe this is still too early, time will tell.

Just okay
June 1, 2021

Trees came damaged. Been doing my best to nurse them back to health. Has taken several weeks just to get a new budding leaf after half the limbs were damaged from improper packaging on my jackfruit tree. So I've been rather hesitant to order more trees even though I have them in my cart.

Healthy plants!
May 2, 2021

I ordered 2 gardenias and although fedex delivered them 2 dates later than expected, the plants arrived well packaged and beautiful. I immediately watered them well since they were very dry (They were with fedex for 5 days!). I'm going to plant them this week and I'm looking forward to next spring when they bloom all those fragrant blossoms!

Purchased 3 items. I have planted 100s of trees over my lifetime, just really enjoy wild things in wild places. First the good things. The crabapple tree and burning bush looks really good. Shipping was fast and good communication from customer service. Detailed instructions on how to plant and plants were well secured in packaging. Now the bad. These prices are pretty premium to be getting sub par products. Was disappointed with the sugar maple tree. Was smaller then what I expected and the trunk was not very straight at all considering it was 160.00 tree. Feel that money would have been better spent elsewhere for the quality I received.

The tree looks great. Planting instructions and kit were good. But until I get some apples, I can't tell you if I'm happy or not.
