 Thank you, 😀 Mindi The white dots on the lower leaves. You can see them better if you blow up the picture. |

| Hi, Hard to tell from the pictures - they don't look raised. If it washes off it's probably insect poo. Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. Douglas Adams |

| Hmmm. I felt them and they felt like little bumps. If you touch the photo it enlarges so you can see it clearly. It's very evenly spaced and out of all of my marigolds these were the only ones with the white bumps. Maybe it's just a mystery lol. |

| I'm still thinking it's not eggs and probably poo - especially since you said it was the only one. Just take a wet paper towel and wipe them off.

They don't come off. Iam sure it's not poo 💩 lol They are the tiny bit raised and hard. I know in my life that I have seen them before but wasn't interested like I am now. They are evenly spaced. I give up. Mystery evenly spaced white things lol.  😀 Mindi |

| They are strange! Especially with the symmetry. Cut off the leaf and stick it in a jar. put some panty hose or something on the top and see what hatches out.

| I was thinking the same thing. I think I can find a pickle jar, as my son nonchalantly eats an entire jar at once. He is stealthy about it!! 😀 Mindi |

| They may be the secretory cavities of the marigold leaf. |

| Danita, that sounds logical. Maybe excreting something it doesn't need. Thanks!! 😀 Mindi |
