Fast Growing Trees must be getting rid of all the plants 🌱 I have gotten from them! The first two plants were grapes supposedly grown in my zone,(9). They didn't look 👀 well when I planted them. I fertilized them planted and watered them. Still haven't thrived. I got the second plant, wisteria. Also in my zone (9) fertilized and watered as well. I'm hoping for the best. The plants weren't super expensive but I took a chance on the seller who seemed to be reputable. This is my first experience with this nursery. It may be the last!
Not sure since not yet growing season but tree seems small especially based on price which is much higher than our local nursery for the same type tree.
Originally I left a 5 star review, I've bought 15-16 tees from here but my recent experience has been very bad, I haven't received my starfruit or owari satsuma(ordered all the way back in December), the delivery date for both of them said March 24th when I ordered it and have tried to get an update on where it is by email 3 times and still have not heard back! You guys said you reached out with feedback but I never got it!
One trees was shipped dead, the other is mostly dead now, being rehabilitated. It's annoying with the back and forth with these people. I will not buy another plant from them
Very odd to request feedback when I haven't received the tree.
Using USPS is terrible for shipping a live tree. My order should have been delivered yesterday, and tracking shows it is in limbo between two centers for the last two days.
I thought I was purchasing a houseplant for $55. What I received was a sprout, with ONE LEAF, which fell off a day after it arrived. I was considering buying trees for my Cape Cod home, but thought I should experiment first with "houseplants." I see now this company is NEVER to be trusted again, and will be purchasing nothing more in the future.
This is not the first time that I've ordered plants from fast growing trees, in fact, I have never been disappointed. This is the first time that I've ordered for my new home in Florida, zone 10. Wasn't sure what plants to order but navigating the website. I not only got great plants but also an education it also always surprises me how well the plant are packed and arrive. I highly recommend them no matter what zone you live.
I was so disgusted when I got the tree in the mail that I ordered. I paid $119 for a 3 foot stick with 10 leaves on it. That is not the experience that my husband has had with the multiple items that he has ordered from y'all. I was so embarrassed with what I was sent, that I could not give it to my son and daughter-in-law as a Christmas gift. I had to go here locally and get something four times the size for less than half the price
The two Italian cypress trees that I bought, were so skinny. They look like they had been grown on steroids. They had no shape just a stalk running up the middle. Quite disappointed that they weren't like mini versions of the ones I have in my yard. I guess there's no substitute for seeing them with their own eyes then buying them.
This is a gift for one of my daughters. I was told the tree will be delivered in May. I'm hoping it will be a good size & healthy. She is super picky, so make me proud. 😂
I did buy a Japanese Maple for my roof top garden a few months ago & even with all the crazy weather we have had, it's still alive. It's a sick at this point, so anxious to see what happens in the Spring.

I bought two apple trees as Christmas presents for zone 5. They arrived. Thankfully I had questions about planting them so I called. I was told it was too late in the season to plant them. They'd die. My son was in the process of planting them. He stopped. Now they sit in his house. We all hope they will live. Why would they ship plants too late in the season to be planted.
The tree I ordered was a gift for my friend's new home.
I was there when they opened it.
IT WAS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! It was straight and tall with lovely, lush leaves!
I've never ordered a product from ANY nursery that has been this beautiful upon arrival.
My first thought was..."I should have kept that for myself!" (Selfishly)
It's been in the ground for about a month and it's thriving.
I'm ordering others for myself!
BEST online nursery purchase, ever!

I was very pleased with the four trees that I have purchased. They came well-packaged and had no damage. The plants seemed very healthy. Of course, we will see how they do over yime, but they started well.
I have bought several trees from this company. I will say it is a tad on the expensive side. However, the customer service is just amazing and any time ive needed advice or assistance its just been a joy. So i feel in a sense i pay for the experience as well so for me it is worth it.
I had a bit of difficulty getting my first order placed. As a result I ordered two Japanese maples. I'm so glad I did. They both are perfect specimens. Spring is right around the corner and I can hardly wait for everything to bloom out. Such beautiful shapes.
You blamed fedex for three incorrect deliveries. The third recipients of my misdirected gift brought it themselves to my friends' house. YOU CANNOT SPEAK TO A HUMAN about order problems; so I spent ages on chat trying to get this resolved. Requested a call from management and sure I won't get it.
Ordered a 6 foot orange tree. Received a 4 foot orange tree. Company refunded a whopping $20. The tree has been struggling for a couple months. I am not convinced that it is going to survive. I think you would find more value getting a tree locally from Home Depot, Lowes, or a local farmer.
While the tree I got was a very nice shape and size, it was DEAD DEAD DEAD. All of these needles fell off the moment I took it out of the box. It also was not on my porch as I waited for delivery. Very sad - if it was fresh It would have been a perfect tree.
My trees arrives quite dead. Avacados frozen from their fight in a cargo plane during winter. Their leaves crumbled like potato chips. The returns dept advised me to wait month or two as they were dormant and would sprout in the spring. Avocados dont have a dormancy period, they were delivered in full foliage, frozen dead foliage. Now they are tell me they can't process the return until a 30 day period has passed. I'll never purchase from they again. If you live near them and can pick up living plants in person, they do have great stuff. Otherwise buyer beware of their no return policies.
I've dreamed of my very own orchard. My first 4 trees arrived today. They are healthy and happy. I look forward to the next 4 that I'll buy next year.
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.
