Artisan Seeds is now offering the Trump "Bigly" tomato

Rajun Gardener · December 15, 2016

Fred must have cabin fever

Bigly is a really great tomato that is certainly the best tomato ever. If you have had problems growing tomatoes, Bigly will solve all your problems. It is huge and we can say with certainly that it will be the best tomato you ever grow. It is 100% made in America, and with this tomato we have fixed all of the problems with other tomatoes, many of which come from Mexico. This tomato produces Big League and it will Make America Garden Again #MAGA

Bigly is a beautiful Orange beefsteak tomato with yellow stripes. It is a highly productive indeterminate variety that does very well when planted in the ground and given lots of space to grow in. Staking is recommended for the very large plants. Bigly produces prolifically, starting at about 75 days after transplant.

Although Bigly is the greatest variety ever for most of the country, some in California and the Northeast have suggested that it is suspiciously similar to a Russian tomato called Наш человек (translated: "Our Man") and suggestions have also been made that Bigly might actually be that Russian variety. In the absence of any convincing tweets on the subject, more work will need to be done to determine the veracity of these claims.

One final possibility, suggested by some loser in a New Jersey basement, is that rogue elements at Artisan Seeds have simply re-named Orange Jazz, but clearly there are many scientists on both sides of this issue and if we can get enough re-tweets we can totally disprove this.

25+ seeds per packet

Trump wasn't mentioned. That is what makes it so funny.

Edited, I just realized the orange color connection.

Hilarious.... or...

Ricky Shaw · December 16, 2016

This tomato does not do well in all zones and it's good you bring that up Narni.

This tomato did unexpectedly well in the rust belt.

Oh very very good!

I will only say that the pictures that one encounters in the link in post #1 show "Bigly" and then a picture ("you might also be interested in") of Orange Jazz. The picture of Orange Jazz looks exactly like it was cut from the picture of "Bigly" and uses the tomato on the left of the two "Bigly" fruits. Of course, they "blurred" the picture they are using for Orange Jazz a bit.

I think Fred may have missed something here, or, more likely, is just "having us on".

Fred, are you going the way of "Amish Seeds", or is dementia in your near future??

Or, maybe I missed the joke.

Fred Hempel · December 16, 2016

Ted,

You didn't miss the joke. Bigly is Orange Jazz. The only difference is the name.

The introduction of Bigly is a brazen re-naming effort by someone at Artisan Seeds.

Notice, though, that you get only 25 Bigly seeds for $4.95 and 100 Orange Jazz seeds. This indicates that Bigly is also an attempt to rip off the gullible. When I find out who is responsible I will take swift action.

OMG- Fred, you are a Scream!

I really hope that Bigly won't leave a bad taste. I'm sure that Orange Jazz will not
