UPDATE: Since purchasing these trees almost 3 years ago, I have only lost 3. Tried to replace these by purchasing 3 from Lowes. While these started out really pretty and full, within a year, they were turning brown and infested with bagworms (which green giants aren't supposed to be affected by). Needless to say, I will be purchasing 3 new trees through Fast Growing Trees. Guess I should stick with what's been tried and true...
