Our tree arrived very well protected in the packaging and healthy. There were many new leaves starting. A couple of leaves dropped, which we were told was normal. The tree, although young, has a lovely shape. So far so good!

First time buyer
May 28, 2021

We were looking to purchase some fruit trees for our backyard and I came across your web site. After reading through your company information and products you carry, I decided to order a cherry tree. Upon receiving the tree, I noticed that the product was in excellent health. I planted the tree and am looking forward to reaping the fruit from it as it matures.

Not for me
May 28, 2021

I ordered a Dogwood, Azalea, and Tulip Poplar and received a free Japanese Maple as part of their promotion. I was home when FedEx delivered the box and opened it within the hour. All the dirt/soil was dry and hot. All four items were smooshed in one box. I believe the smaller items were injured by the larger ones. The Tulip Poplar was snapped/broken so I lost about 18 inches of growth. The Japanese Maple's leaves were dry and crunchy. It looked mostly like a long twig with some dead leaves on it. The Azalea lost a lot of branches. I had such high hopes but was severely disappointed.

Poorly Packaged
June 2, 2021

I love the ease of shopping for things online and finding exactly what I want – often shopping in a store in limited and have to settle because it's all that's available. So, I made an assumption that this could be that simple... it wasn't.

After spending roughly 8 days in a box, in various vehicles the four plants arrived. Everyone of them had extreme trauma. All of them had fallen out of the containers, dirt loose in a bag and the roots dry and exposed.

Stems were broken, leaves were wilted and some had already turned brown.

Officially - they are all still alive. We water them and care for them 2-3x/day. But they look terrible, many leaves are now black, and totally dead. Some parts of the plants are ok, some parts are droopy. Instead of getting a local plant that could thrive over the summer we have plants that will not really be doing well until next season if they make it.

In short, I'd never take the chance again. I'll buy local / drivable.

Found B B shortly after building new home on barren lot. Things are now envy
On my street, the variety and the quality have just been what one expects but seldom finds. Thank you BRIGHTER BLOOMS. I am not finished yet, probably will never be but what.

Happy trees
May 28, 2021

The two trees that I ordered were delivered on time by FedEx. One of the trees was a little beat up during the transport but considering the means of transport I guess one should expect some damage. Overall I'm very pleased with Fast Growing Trees!

We apologize for your experience! Because we are shipping live plants, we advise against returning them. The time spent shipping to and from the customer will severely weaken or kill the plants. Because of this we do charge a restocking fee if you decide not to accept the delivery.

Tuscarora Crepe Myrtle
June 2, 2021

We asked about the 5 gal size tree before ordering and when the tree arrived it was much smaller than described. It was shipped later than expected and arrived damaged. We reported this to customer service and were very disappointed in their response. We will not recommend fast growing trees to anyone and will not order again. Very disappointing experience.

Mandarin tree
June 2, 2021

Tree is dying slowly. Seems like it never had a chance. I have nearly 40 plants, haven't lost one yet. This will be the first to die.

Pretty disappointed in my purchase

I got dozens of emails before my order even arrived. I reset my preferences to get email once a month, but the emails continued to come. Then I unsubscribed and they still continued to come. At least daily. I unsubscribed again and they finally stopped. Spamming new customers with a flood of emails is not a way to make a good impression.

Received my Plumeria tree and 3 plants. All but one looked destroyed. Customer service was great with advice and why they looked dead. Now it's a wait and see process.

Plants not surviving
June 2, 2021

4 of the 10 Pencil scrubs are not doing well even though they are planted next to each other in the same soil and watered the same way. The leaves are drying up and are stiff to touch and falling.

Extremely happy and satisfied
May 28, 2021

I bought a peach tree, delivered fast, packaged w/ care and tree is healthy and thriving. I'm so happy.

In the past I bought bare-root trees and I'm happy with those but I wanted a tree that wasn't a bare root and grown a bit.

You'll be very happy with your purchase.
I also bought another fruit tree (Asian pear tree) it's being delivered in couple days,
