Dragon Maples
August 3, 2018

Delivery was as expected and great. However trees were less mature than expected and while planted as directed and nurtured according to the directions now months later, they have not grown at all. Suspect they were dormant and will not see any new grwoth until next season.

I ordered some rose plants and two Japanese maple trees, the root balls on the trees were almost none existing dew to shipping, one tree barley survived the replanting and the other did not, it dyed out even after surrounding them both with good potting soil, and watering them everyday, i will go back to local grown plants and tree's for the future.

Red Dogwood Tree
August 3, 2018

When I first opened the box, I thought wow this is something.
Tree was nice and ready to go then, I read all instructions.
They were very helpful. Whoever wrote them did a good job.
Put it in the ground and waited, got worried. Then in about a
Month... she took off! Looks great, cannot wait to see the red
Dogwood blooms! Very Satisfied!

This is the second time in the last two years that I have had to contact Fast Growing Trees in regard to a dead plant. I have ordered many times in the past and the quality was outstanding - that seems to be declining. I did not want a store credit I would have preferred a refund.

No Growing Trees
August 3, 2018

I received 2 avocado trees (one Haus and one Mexican Avocado) in April 2018. They have no leaves and no sign yet of new growth. I don't even know if they're still alive. They had a little new growth a couple months ago but that is gone now too. I live in zone 9 so they should be growing. I wish I could attach a picture of them. I did everything the instructions said and have watered them regularly. For $100 per tree I could have bought ones from my local nursery that had decent growth on them already. I'm still holding out hope, but not sure about the "fast growing tree" part. I won't be purchasing any more trees from fast growingtrees.com unless something short of a miracle happens!

New plants
August 3, 2018

Very quick delivery, plants were in moist protected bags with dirt. Looked very healthy when arriving. Some good directions for planting. They were planted within a couple days and have done very well. Would buy more plants

Amazing Tree
August 3, 2018

I ordered two Royal Empress trees. When they arrived one was still in the soil and pot. The other tree was out of the pot, soil was loose in the box. They both looked like a dead stick, no leaves and the one loose in the box had one root sticking out at the bottom. I felt no hope for this tree. Boy was I in for a surprise! My husband put the tree back in the pot, with potting soil and watered it. In about a week it had a leaf and continued to put leaves and branches out. We let it grow in the pot for a few weeks then planted it in the yard. The leaves drooped and lay against the trunk of the tree. Three weeks after planting it perked up and is doing great. The other tree did great from the beginning. We are so happy with these trees, we can almost watch them grow.

Rose bushes
August 3, 2018

Not favorable experience. We ordered three mature rose bushes, they were shipped in boxes not marked with arrow indicating "up", two were cramped in one box, upon opening, soil was not even around roots. Two roses died.
Gift certificate was issued but growing season by then was over.
They should know better!
