So far in the mystery boxes, I have gotten… Arjuna Tree, Durian Tree and Fertilize all – for anyone curious!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:30 am
I cant seem to open the gifts now. Have full box. Can anyone tell which all trees are there in the mystery box??
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:31 am
Be Good if i could get into my giftbox. lol
What’s going on with that anyway?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:34 am
Glad to have a free Insta-Grow, but the Mystery Gifts are kinda lame.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:35 am
Yes.. I opened two.. from one I got the Arjuna tree and from the other I got a black pig…
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:38 am

Arjuna Tree
Durian Tree
Fertilize All
Farmhands
Black Pig

The gift box bug is annoying, yes- but you can work around it if you refresh the page.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:40 am
I think that getting a inta grow is getting lame. and the item takes up too much room and BLUE? Really cannot they pick a better color?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:41 am
I think that getting a insta grow is getting lame… and the item takes up too much room and BLUE? Really cannot they pick a better color?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:49 am
Well, I think it’s nice to get something free that I may or may not want on my farm, and the insta grow is kinda nice too. And as far as it being BLUE. it is from Amex , they pretty much are all blue. unless maybe you have the much coveted black card….in which case….sell it , you can buy pretty much anything else FV oriented that you wanted.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:54 am
nothing good in mystery gifts same old trees , the best thing i received was farmhands, which were a least useful, sold the trees, my farm is in danger of becoming forest.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:59 am
It’s the same blue as the American Express logo. Would you prefer that if have advertising on it? No matter what they do, someone is going to whine about it.
I like the windmill, I always like insta-grow. Can never get too many of those.
I wasn’t expecting much from the mystery boxes, and I wasn’t disappointed.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:13 am
I placed the windmill on my ec farm. Fits there nicely
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:18 am
I got the black pig and Arjuna Tree, which i like the tree, i have plenty of it’s level two trees, but missed out on this one when ever it came out before.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:21 am
I’ve gotten: Arjuna Tree X2, Fertilizer All X2, Farmhands, Daruin Tree and Black Pig.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:25 am
Guys what is the level 2 of Arjuna tree? Thanks! American Express
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:28 am
Since i accepted the windmill, one page of my giftbox is missing, since i cant find the blue giftbox either i suppose the page with it is missing
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:29 am
I dearly love the beautiful blue windill. I like the new Mystery box. But I hope we get more than just Arjuna Trees and black pigs in the other. It’s a nice change though.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:34 am
I must say I enjoyed my mystery boxes I got my first Arjuna tree and was excited I’m huge in to the trees so this tickled me and seeing how I only started playing in January I’m glad I got a tree that is no longer available how ever I can do with out the Durian tree you can get those for free and I have enough pigs it’s not really a mystery when everyone is getting the same thing in the same order that really takes the mystery out of it
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:51 am
I agree, some people will find something to complain about no matter what.
Free windmill (hope its worth as much as the rio promotionals, those were great $$). Free instagrow. Free gifts. Sounds good to me.
Hopefully more companies will do something similar instead of having to fill out a survey etc to get the goodies. Nice surprise tonight.
Lots of problems with fv tonight, probably due to the new releases and this promotion, will look forward to mystery boxes tomorrow.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 2:04 am
As a tree collector, I’m happy to see some of these retired trees re-released and for free. I decided to put the windmill on the home farm because the blue just sticks out too much on the EC. I really enjoyed this offering and hope they do more of these type of things in the future.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 2:08 am
I placed the windmill and the game froze. When it came back up the windmill was gone and insta grow was in my gifts box. I really wanted the windmill. At first I thought it was just a promo come on but in reading comments about it I realize we were to get the windmill. Is there a way to reclaim it?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 2:13 am
The Arjuna tree has long been my favorite tree, but there is no mastery for it for some reason, which is majorly lame.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 2:19 am
it’s just me, but why i could send this gift just to 40, not 50 neighbours at the time? is tihs new limit, or just for these blue boxes?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 2:44 am
I’m frozen out with no windmill and no access to my giftbox
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:04 am
I got mystery boxes and insta grow but no windmill in gift box, I would really like to get it. Having problems with gift box for hours so maybe it will show up later like the color change ram did, it took hours to get the ram after the message that the ram was being given to players who bought color change ewe.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:08 am
I didn’t get a pop up for this. Anyone else having that problem? There is nothing in my gift box for it either.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:08 am
PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT GIFT BOX. I can’t use fertilizer to get more xp. Zynga revarded 3000 xp… Nice.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:26 am
I got the new windmill on my farm, but my mom doesnt. how she can get the mill
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:49 am
@Molly….you can master the Arjuna tree. It’s not on the tree mastery list, and I don’t why. But if you look inside an orchard that has Arjuna trees in it, it will show you your mastery progress. And it begets the Indian Laurel level 2 tree. I only had one Arjuna, so I’m very pleased to get more from these mystery boxes.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:55 am
i received instatgrow but not the mill? what did i wrong?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 3:57 am
i received instantgrow but not the mill? what did i wrong?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 5:35 am

Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 6:01 am

Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 6:20 am

Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 6:50 am
no windmill even offered.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 6:57 am
The instant grow appeared in my giftbox but wasn’t even offered the windmill !!!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 7:03 am
i have a problem in this free american express blue windmill! it didnt show in my farm.. need help
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 7:23 am
Nothing. I found a instant grow in my gift box but thats it, no windmill.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 7:36 am
I love the mystery boxes, great gifts!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 7:36 am
The windmill is yet another bloated eyesoar of no use whatsoever.
Did not get the opportunity to post the gift boxes – nor did I receive any for myself.
Why on Earth would I trade in charge card points on a virtual game when I could trade them in on something tangible?
The insta-grow is good, being saved for when it is actually needed. Would be better if they were to do something like – every time you mastered a crop (received the mastery sign) or good you received a free insta-gro as a reward.
When you complete mastery of all crops (this happens once on each farm, twice on the same farm when they finally come to their senses and let us combine our property) you receive 10 as a reward.
For those who have already bought their way to total mastery oh… 20 free insta-grows as a one-time gift?
Include one free insta-grow for every time you have been on your farm 21 times consecutively (3 weeks) – this would reward those who are actually working their farm rather than just those who click ads.

hello…i need help…I didn’t understand how you can get this mystery box…please help!!!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 7:55 am
Hi ever since not accepting the free windmill etc Im unable to gain access to my “gifts”,the rest of the farm works though alittle slow ,just not able to use gifts ..I have 150+ to use …is there any thing help /advice you guys can suggest to do to retrieve these.. mny thx
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 8:34 am
I did not get mine . :* (
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 8:37 am
ZUCKING FYNGA!!!!! FIX THE LOADING ISSUES ALREADY, DAMMIT. I haven’t been able to open my giftbox for two days, and today, I can’t even access my effin’ farm. Every time I try to open it, the AE popup comes up and the farm goes OOS. Oh, and I love the windmill. If you don’t like it, just get rid of it. No one is forcing you to accept it.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 9:02 am
@Jan Zuck Fynga? LOL
Having the same issues with gift box. Didn’t even get the American Express offer.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 9:08 am
#24 to Judy Cunningham, take a look in your gift box under the tab “BUILDINGS”, I thought I had lost my windmill when my farm froze on placement, and it wasn’t showing under the word “ALL” in the gift box, but finally found it under “BUILDINGS”.
I think the catogories in the gift box are a bit stupid actually, you would think when you looked under the word “ALL” you would see everything that is in the gift box wouldn’t you?
So far I cannot open my new blue mystery boxes, it makes my farm freeze when I try, but I opened a couple on my husbands farm and got a Durian tree, black pig, and fertiliser.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 9:58 am
it was nice to get the instant grow but why cant they put some in the mystery boxes as well to help us out more?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 9:59 am
my windmill disappeared
will it come back?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 10:00 am
my windmill disappeared… will it come back?
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 10:08 am
Strange how my gifts have vanished, not all, but important ones like farmhands, arborist, and the like. The “All” does not show “All” and I get to page 3, there no longer exists page 4 thru 6, but a page 7 occurs. Big mess up here. Please someone fix what is going wrong. I read all the coments, and everyone who wrote has something awful happening with their farms. Game is for fun not stress. By the way, I think the windmill is nice, nice idea for a promotion. I will make it work on my farm. I thanks. Chaos of gift box, no!!! C. the Papillon…..
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:03 am
#51 Chris CLucas THANKYOU SO MUCH!!!! I was disappointed when I couldn’t find the windmill under “all” tab. However,after reading your comment I went on to find mine under the “DECORATIONS” tab instead of the “buildings”…. Zynga’s really confused about the categories I guess. Thanks again
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:25 am
I can’t open the mystery boxes. I can get in my gift box to use them but once I click on use it freezes up my whole farm. If you are going to release new things Zynga–please test them first to make sure they work correctly!!!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:41 am
Like this promo. The windmill is cute and has no ad actually on it, but I will always know it was form AmEx. Also, like the gift box thing too. Great idea AmEx! Not only do we have a fun limited time thing to gift but the prizes are cooler than normal!
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:44 am
I CAN’T EVEN OPEN THOSE DAM BOXES,PLUS YOU STILL HAVEN’T FIXED MY SHARING WATER,SEEDS OR TREES,ZINGER PLZ GET IT RIGHT FOR ONCE.AM SO TIRED OF WRITING TO YOU AND ON ANSWER.BUT I BET THAT IF I SAID I CAN’T PUT MONEY IN UR ANSWER ME SO FAST,,,,,
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:46 am
I like the windmill, I think it’s pretty. And I very much like getting insta-grow, it comes in handy. I did not expect much from the mystery gift but there may be players who want that stuff (as we all did once) so I can’t complain. I like that we were just given the gifts, we didn’t have to visit the American Express farm or anything.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:52 am
i clicked the wrong button n didn’t get mine…..i want one too…….
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 11:53 am
I do so love the instant grow. Although I find the gift box items to be totally lacking in design. I would think that they could think up better items instead of using the same old stuff.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:36 pm
Didn’t even get the offer

Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:44 pm
I never got a pop-up for a windmill. Picked up an instant grow from the feed though.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:46 pm
WHY, WHY, WHY CAN SOME PEOPLE NOT BE HAPPY WITH FREE THINGS? ITS BLUE BECAUSE ITS THE COLOR OF AMEX!!!! GET A CLUE. SOME PEOPLE DONT EVEN READ THE POSTS BEFORE CRYING ABOUT SOMETHING THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT. YOU DIDNT GET THE OFFER YET, BECAUSE ITS ROLLING OUT STILL !!! YOU WILL GET IT IM SURE. YOU DONT HAVE TO KEEP IT IF YOU DONT LIKE IT. SELL IT AND GET THE COINS THEN. MY GOD PEOPLE. PLEASE JUST STOP THE CRYING ABOUT FREE STUFF. I LIKE IT AND THINK A POP OF COLOR NEVER HURTS.
Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 12:51 pm

Posted on May 10th, 2011 at 1:06 pm

Posted on May 11th, 2011 at 11:19 pm
The mystery boxes will cause the game to freeze up if your gift box is over limit (at or above 500).
Posted on February 4th, 2012 at 10:02 am
I visit my farm daily but I don’t get the offer . What can I do?
