I use PayPal for my checkout needs and unfortunately, to have an account, you cannot check out with PayPal. So, I miss out on the perks of being a member and I don't appreciate that. I wish someone would look over my account and credit me for my purchases, which have been quite a few this past year.
While I like shop, it does not allow the PayPal option to check out, so I do not get credit for my purchases because I have to check out as a guest. I'm upset that my previous purchases didn't earn points and will continue not to earn points while PayPal is not offered while logged in through Shop.
I ordered one lemon bush for our anniversary. Ordered a second one for Christmas because they produce better if there are two or more. Just ordered a fig tree to replace a dead red leaf maple.
Previous order, 8 hollies; next spring 2 were obviously dying, although one still had faint green bark, would not replace this one
After my first order, FedEx sent tracking information along with an expected delivery date. The trees did not arrive, and when I checked the tracking information again, the details had changed. I then received an email from you asking how your business had done. I assumed you thought I had already received the trees. In my review, I stated that I was upset about the inconsistent delivery dates. I then received the following response:
My name is Amanda, and I am one of the Senior Representatives here at Fast Growing Trees. I am following up on your recent survey.
I am so sorry for the confusion. I see your order was originally scheduled to be delivered between Tuesday, January 6th, and Wednesday, January 7th. Based on the tracking information, your order is now scheduled to be delivered on Monday, January 5th.
Rest assured, our typical transit time is between 2-7 days. This is well within a healthy timeframe for the plants to be in their boxes.
I hope this helps! If you have any other questions/concerns that come up, please feel free to contact us directly at *******959 from 9-8 Eastern time, and we'll be happy to assist you further.

What Amanda did not see was the original scheduled delivery date, because it had already been changed. I was not the one who was confused. When the new scheduled delivery date arrived, the trees showed "out for delivery," but once again, they did not arrive.
I then spoke with a very nice woman at your company who explained that the shipper had sent the trees back to the distribution center for inspection. This concerned me, as I was unsure why that would be necessary. She assured me she would investigate and, if needed, have new trees sent right away. She also mentioned that I had not received the 30% discount that was offered and said she would take care of that as well.
Unfortunately, I do not remember her name, but her customer service encouraged me to trust your company and place an additional order.
In contrast, Amanda's response suggested that I was somehow confused and that I should have known your typical transit time, which I could not find on your website.
Please locate the woman who helped me over the phone and give her a raise—just deduct it from Amanda's salary.
P.S. Amanda, if you write me back that I am confused again, I'll cancel every order.
Bought a blueberry bush and a meyer lemon tree. The blueberry bush is thriving but the Meyer lemon unfortunately did not make it. They sent me a replacement. Very good customer service.
I ordered a blueberry bush and am very happy with it so far. I need to wait till summer to see if anything blooms and if I get any fruit. But it's worth the wait. I have it planted inside, basking in the sunlight of a window.
After adding the Reliance Peach Tree to my basket and seeing the HURRY35 discount, it disappeared at checkout. Then a message stated that the discount was not available for my area. Disappointing, given the number of trees I ordered.
I have placed two previous orders and have not yet received any trees due to the time of year.
This was an excellent online shopping experience from start to finish. The website was well organized, making it easy to find what I needed. Ordering was straightforward, communication was clear, and shipping was fast. Everything arrived exactly as expected. I will absolutely order from here again.
The most difficult decision is what to purchase first! It's fun looking at all the options and trying to picture your future gardens! If you have any questions, you can call and speak to a live horticulturalist for advice. Amazing service!
Great coupon, free shipping, and payment options.
The trees previously purchased have been in good condition when received. The one time the package was beat up and one tree was broken, it was replaced with no problems.
I have been growing Arizona Cypress trees for 5 years. Fast Growing Trees has given me the best quality and best deals on line. All the trees arrived healthy and strong. Fast Growing Trees always helps me with the price so that I don't have to pay full price. Good Company
Great tree selection, price, and shipping! Thank you
I got an avocado tree. It was beautiful. I lost all the leaves, but II got an avocado tree. It was beautiful. I lost all the leaves, but I think it's going to live
I can't wait to see my new avocado tree from you. It was very easy to order and I'm gonna use an avocado tree for my Christmas tree this year.
Sweet Bay Magnolia had no support stick. Ranier Cherry tree came with black, insect eaten leaves. Remaining problems were with deliverer unable to read This Side Up.
Rhododendron and lavender came well packaged and followed directions, but couldn't keep lavender alive. Didn't ask for refund, unfortunately.
I have purchased many plants and trees from here and anytime I have called regarding warranty they have replaced immediately with no issues.
I ordered two Navel Orange trees and they survived and thrived following a freak snow storm that hit the Gulf Coast in January of 2025. Can't wait to see them continue to prosper!
I've found FGT a very responsive business. When I have questions, they are always willing to help. If a plant is damaged, they make it right.
Very pleased with the variety of plants FGT has. My last experience was purchasing 2 Fruit Snacks Apple trees. Both were in excellent shape and a little bit larger than expected - a bonus!
I had purchased a tri-color willow tree and it did not survive. I reached out for a replacement. They didn't have any trees left but they did credit my account and I was able to purchase something new. Easy, fast and the nicest customer service ever.
I am amazed in the quality of the plants that I have ordered. I also appreciate the packaging which insures that the plants arrive with the least amount of damage.
I have ordered several trees from this website and they never let me down they are show up beautiful and when they don't they always replace it or give you your money back
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.
