Questionhw can I improve health of plant so problem won't recur next year
AnswerIf the leaves have large orangish-red spots on them, then they have hollyhock rust, which a fungal disease. If this is the case, you will need to treat preventatively with a fungicide on next year's planting. Use Daconil all purpose fungicide and you should be able to keep the rust off the plants. Good Luck.
