Copper fungicides are regarded as one of the most effective and reliable hollyhock rust treatments, especially for organic and chemical-free gardeners. But what if there is just too much hollyhock rust to treat and prevent with copper fungicide? Copper fungicide application is not a cure all for preventing hollyhock rust. It’s just one tool in your arsenal of weapons you can use against the disease. But it should be high on the list of things to do for hollyhocks that are threatened by Scaphoideus titanus, otherwise known as the hollyhock rust fly. Hollyhock rust can really decimate your hollyhock plants, especially if you’ve got a specific variety you’re trying to grow. I didn’t realize this until I bought over a hundred plants and about half of them either just fell apart or had a good third of their leaves covered in rust. I’m gonna tell you everything about it, so read on and learn how to identify, treat and prevent it! Hollyhock rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia malvacearum, is a widespread disease of hollyhocks in many areas of the United States. Hollyhock rust grows on the foliage and stems of hollyhocks, forming large rust-colored patches that may kill portions of the plant. Affected plants often become sterile and produce few or no seeds. Hollyhock rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia malvacearum, was first noted on hollyhocks in the United States in 1911. The disease forms hard and corky lesions that are primarily found on the lower leaves of infected plants but can also form on stems and peduncles (flower stalks) and occasionally fruits. Hollyhock rust continues to cause significant losses in the U. S., costing producers millions of dollars annually.
