Hi, Linda.
I have have some white marigolds saved from plants last year. It was the 'sweet cream' but they are a hybrid and I don't know if they will come true from seed.

I don't see your name in addy exchange. If you like to try these just d-mail me your addy.

Hi Planolinda,

I don't have white marigolds but quite a few other white ones. Please check my trade list and send me d-mail if there's anything of interest to you!

White maragolds? I guess you do learn something everyday, as long as you are "tuned in".I have never seen seeds for the white.Are they large or small.Mike

The sweet cream were about 15 inches high and the blooms two inches across. I had them in poor light and poor soil. Not sure what they would do given "proper" growing conditions. My original seed were from walmart...not hard to find. Just don't know if they'll stay true to seed the second round. I'll find out this year. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/90937/

tuinkabouter--since you live in the same zone i would love to try your white flowers but wouldn't the postage be very expensive? and are there restrictions to mailing seed out of your country and into ours?

Postage is only a little more expensive than shipping within the USA. Seeds don't weigh very much! There are restrictions, but I'm extremely good in avoiding them. Out of about a 120 envelopes only one got snatched by customs.....

So I can say there's a fair chance that they get there. And If not, I'll simply send them again.

Please send me d-mail to let me know which species you want and we'll take it from there!

ok--thanks!
