Poor Hollyhock

The leaves were covered with 'rust' and all the sites said to cut them off.
Such a pretty salmon color too. It looks so bare without it's big frilly leaves. I guess after it blooms, I am cutting it down to the ground. I happen to turn on GW's press conference yesterday and saw hollyhocks behind him that looked like their leaves were cut back. Maybe theirs was only for show though.

    I love hollyhocks and those are certainly a beautiful colour! What happened to the leaves, did they just fall off or did it grow with no leaves? Maybe it is a good idea to cut it down after it's done blooming and start from scratch with it next year.
