Using "Organize bookmarks" I can delete individual bookmarks, but when I try to delete the empty folder, the "delete" option is grayed out.

Which folder are you trying to delete?

In the left pane in the Library (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) there are three main folders in the "All Bookmarks" folder ("Bookmarks Toolbar","Bookmarks Menu","Unsorted Bookmarks"). You can't remove those main folders. 

* The Bookmarks Toolbar folder stores the bookmarks that you see on the (View > Toolbars >) Bookmarks Toolbar.
* The Bookmarks Menu folder stores bookmarks that you see in the Bookmarks menu and create via "Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page" or "Bookmark This Link" in the right click context menu.
* The Unsorted Bookmarks folder stores that bookmarks that are created by clicking the star at the right end of the location bar.
