Mvc Json - Color Always Returns Null

I am working on a mvc project, and having problem with json. i have created a demo project with list of colors

public JsonResult GetResult()
{
List<string> strList = new List<string>();
strList.Add("white");
strList.Add("blue");
strList.Add("black");
strList.Add("red");
strList.Add("orange");
strList.Add("green");
return this.Json(strList);
}
i am able to get these on my page, but when i try to delete one color, that is when i send the following using jquery
function deleteItem(item) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/Home/Delete/white",
data: "{}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: ajaxCallSucceed,
dataType: "json",
failure: ajaxCallFailed
});
}

the controler action public JsonResult Delete(string Color) {} Color always returns null, even if i have specified "/Home/Delete/white" in the url. i know i am doing something wrong or missing something, but not able to find out what.
