Your website is fantastic, all of your trees are photographed beautifully and you give explicit descriptions of the plants and how to care for them!
For the 1 year replacement warranty, either a replacement or a store credit can be chosen. For a replacement, you must pay shipping. If you choose a store credit, only one credit can be used for an order and you lose any discounts. So, the store credit barely covers the loss of the discount and shipping costs. It's a no-win.
Some of the rose bushes I bought previously dried up and did not survive. I think gophers might have attacked the roots. What can I do?
I ordered twice from fast growing trees, all my plants except one were healthy and grew well, the one that didn't was also a morning tree but it was dead when I got it…. However I think it's because it was cold outside the day I received it…and I didn't get home until almost dark…I still put it in a pot in my house but it never recovered
Most of the items I've received were in great shape and have thrived. The rose trees and my blueberry bush are struggling though. I'll keep working with them to nurse them along. The blackberry bush is going gangbusters! The hydrangea and the two flowering bushes have taken hold and seem very happy to be in there space.
This is my second ot third time I've ordered plants and have very satisfied with the quality and care given to the plants when receiving. I will highly recommend them.
Had ordered a 7' blooming cherry tree, believe it's called a yokoshimo? For my church and it came with no fibrous roots on it so it died. They didn't have the same size when I reordered and had to settle for a smaller tree and an azalea bush. The bush died. Didn't feel like going through the hassle of returning that one so never bothered.
Your company has been good on providing replacements, but I would rather not to have to replace at all and certainly do not want to pay for shipping for products that are bad.
I really appreciated the ordering process. I was able to reach a live representative that sounded like an actual human that cared about my purchase and it was a very personable experience.
I bought a blueberry shrub and planted it in a container, and I had bought an orange tree and planted in a container too. The blueberry did not survive. The orange tree has not been producing fruit for even after 2 years.
My yard is full of plants, shrubs and trees from " Fast Growing Trees". Why? Of course the selection and and pricing. But being in Zone 9. You need some expertise and quality of plants and trees to survive.
Arrived beautifully packed and the plants and trees are very healthy and thriving. I'll Order from FGT any time I need quality items. Now I'm looking forward to our next batch ordered today.
My trees arrived on time and although one cherry sapling lost the top of its Crown the tree survived. I had not asked for a replacement.
My corkscrew willows are thriving. The birch trees did not do well. Two died within a year and the third never really grew, and was sickly, i just dug it up.
Most of the plants I received were in good shape and are doing well, the few that arrived dead you agreed to replace, but the replacement hasn't shipped yet. I'm still waiting on a Mexican flame vine I ordered on May 5 that won't ship until the week of June 15. I was going to order more plants today but they wouldn't ship until mid July!
Have previously purchased apple trees and a Bing cherry and Rainier Cherry from you, I assume they're doing great as we no longer own that home, which is what prompted me to buy 3 peach tree and a 4 in 1 apple. I missed my fruit trees.
Plants seem heathy. One was very small but planted anyway and I will wait. Had an issue with paying for the guarantee when I saw the commercial said always receive 1 year free but contacted and they corrected for me.
We purchased a beautiful flowering pear tree about three years ago to replace a lost tree. It is thriving and we love it! It is groving very fast too!
We ordered one tree for our front yard a couple of years ago and it is doing great. We love it!
Trees arrived in good condition but showed signs of stress due to shipping, as would be expected. I continued to tend to the trees as recommended and have had no issues
I ordered 16 golden rain trees and they all came well delivered and they are now two years old and looking beautiful. I brought plants too over the years and they have arrived healthy and ready to plant. I love this company
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.
