Hollyhock yellow spots on leaves #873795

Asked June 19, 2024, 2:18 PM EDT

My Hollyhock plants have yellow spots on the leaves. Is there a treatment that will cure this or at least treat it?

Thank you for your question, Betsy.  Although we are reluctant to diagnose a problem without photos, your description is of the only disease in our area of this species.  https://pnwhandbooks.org/plantdisease/host-disease/hollyhock-alcea-rosea-rust

Those fungicides marked "H" are available to homeowners, but need to be applied before the fungus takes hold.  I hope this helps.  Good luck!
