Never received any fast growing trees! When were they supposed to be delivered?
Great delivery, great trees. All survived and are flourishing!
The grafted in branches died pretty quickly and I was left with the peach only. Then the tree died, it didn't even live a year.
Trees arrived and while they technically met the specifications, the quality seemed suspect. Now, after just over a year all but one have died ( We received over 30 total).
Planted 50 trees along border next to highway. Apparently the salt spray from winter application to road found its way to the trees and killed them. I won't know until next spring how many are affected.
Fast Growing Trees is a great place to get healthy plants and trees, as well as solid advice about how to keep your flora healthy. I highly recommend them!
I was surprised at how small the trees were and unfortunately, only half of them lived. The plants were better quality and I'm satisfied with those purchases, however
Despite following all of the enclosed instructions, my little tree died.
I purchased a crepe myrtle from the business. The web site was easy to navigate and informative. They told me what to expect and didn't disappoint.
Some trees arrived in great condition while others came dried and almost dead. I had purchased the extra protection for such an event and got replacements for dead ones. The 2 gingko trees are supposed to be fast growing trees but after 2 years in the ground they still haven't grown more than a few inches. Each year I keep hoping they will take off.
First tree I ordered had practically no leaves and lost more after we planted. Second one had all leaves on one side, lasted about two months and then died off. Wasted a lot of money.
My raspberry bush... provided fruit shortly after getting it. Planted and prepped for winter as it said. It never grew back
Thanks for always having a person that physically works at your company answer the phone l, and not an out of country answering service.
I bought 2 indoor plants and 1 tree. The first plant lasted only a few months and the other plant and tree died within a year.
Bought some rainbow eucalyptus and they never recovered. They were in bad shape when they arrived and died soon after planting
I really wanted this to be a great experience, but it wasn't. I bought 5 river birch that died very quickly. I called and then spent more money on a 1 year warranty. Even though they were all ready dead. The other 2 willows I also bought never made it through the winter. Received some in store credit so I ordered some pencil thin trees to seem like I received something. Just an overall regrettable experience.
Side note: I have planted dozens of trees on my acreage with success.
The tree is doing great after one year. Thank you.
I had five emerald green arborvitae (14 inches tall) planted in May 2018 from one gallon containers. They got planting mix, with plenty of water and sun. They haven't grown one inch! I was advised by a friend that the roots must be growing in, and then they'll grow upwards. BUPKIS! The FGT website stated that they would grow from 14 inches to 4 1/2 feet. There has been ZERO growth.
Last year I bought 8 trees and 3 of them did not make the winter. One was replaced with quite satisfactorily. The other 2 were not - I was told of numerous hoops to jump thru and was unable to do that. I think I know a dead tree - no leaves in spring and summer! Will not purchase anymore trees. I did purchase several bushes and they are all GREAT!
I ordered 4 Black Knight Butterfly Bush's a year or so ago 3 arrived healthy looking and the third looked not so good. Within a week the weaker of the 4 plants rotted and died while the other three flourished. I'm not sure if I would order again but the specimens that did survive are absolutely gorgeous.
