The large leaves on my hollyhocks are two-toned green and yellow and rather pale. The small plants and leaves are normal. I see no signs of insects. We have had more than our share of rain. Should I fertilize them? Any help would surely be appreciated.

I don't know why but a pinch or two of baking soda under the plant should correct that. The leaves wshould get dark green in about 4 days. Keep us posted

Weedwoman,
You should post that helpfull hint in the Gardener's Chat forum under the "What's your secret trick's of the trade for gardening"...
I never knew that.........
How did you learn that???
That's why I started that question because people are always looking for that little extra punch to help them garden...
Great tip.....
