Hollyhocks look like a disaster
Gary L. Heilig, Horticulture Educator (retired) for Michigan State University Extension discusses the most common fungal disease on Hollyhocks.
Including:
How to identify the disease
When to expect its appearance
None chemical culture practices to reduce disease
Conventional and organic management options
"You need to continue applications about every 7-10 days as long as conditions are ripe for developing the disease or until you get fed up with spraying and you don't care any more." lol This is my kind of guy!
hilarious!
I’m glad I found your channel…or whatever it’s called! You are fluent, smart and a pleasure to listen to.
Roses are prone to fungus as well, it's so tough to keep them looking healthy.
as always Great vid Gary
great information! Thank you!
Gary, glad you are retired and still sharing your knowledge! Thanks so much for your insight! :)
Thank You for sharing
Very wise, smart and helpful. Not to mention, you're as cool as a cucumber. Love your humour, intelligence and common sense approach. Your words written at the end were life-affirming as well. God bless, friend. Thanks kindly.
Awesome video thanks
Thank you for hollyhock help. Very helpful to me.
wow great info thanks
I've been battling rust on my hollyhocks this spring... it has been incredibly humid this year (Virginia). They're blooming but the foliage looks
terrible. I'm going to try again next year and try to get ahead of this rust problem.... thank you so much for this information :)
Thank you for your all your information my poor hollyhocks were doing so well then they were consumed with rust.
I hope for bette luck next season
Thankyou so much , is my very favorite Flower since a little girl. !!!
My gramma used to take a flamethrower and torch her garden beds before winter every year. The soil was literally black. Never saw a disease on her roses or flowers. Even the perennials were ok becase she only torched the first 3 inches or so. Is this legit or an old farmer's myth? Her flowers were above average prolific...show quality. She never used chemicals.
That makes sense. It would kill off disease and insects and also force the plants to renew themselves.
thanks...................good info!...Nice Hollyhocks!
Do you know when you’ll talk about the insect that eats the leaves? I am having a MAJOR problem with that. Thank you.
I bet it’s Weevil
This has happened to my poor hollyhocks two years in a row. I will try preventative neem oil treatments next spring (along with your other suggestions). Crossing my fingers that will do the trick, because I love hollyhocks!
I had to do my roses too
Try figleaf hollyhocks less prone to rust.
@@nowirehangers2815 Thanks so much for your responses. I really like your videos. They are always interesting and so informative. 😊
@@sibylc2908 not the channel owner just a fellow gardener.
@@nowirehangers2815 Oops! 😊 My apologies! But I do appreciate your comments. Thank you!
Is July 23rd and I live in Michigan by hollyhocks have the fungus underneath them now should I take the leaves off right now or will shock the plants because the weather's been so hot please give me some information thank you
our plants hardly get rust, this is because we grow out the seeds from the parent plants and they had lots of rust, dont believe everything people tells you about plants because theres so much about plants we dont know. Take your time, and watch closely how the plants deal with there environment, they'll surprise you.
I love hollyhocks but have had a big problem not only with rust but with weevils. I don't want to kill bugs so I can have flowers- it seems wrong.
Plant something to either feed the weavels or stave them off
You would need a host plant that the weevils prefer but you'll end up producing more weevils. Weevils aren't endangered. It's okay to kill them off. Sometimes if you don't have enough natural predators around, they will grow too large in numbers.
