Can these Hollyhocks be saved?

The Hollyhocks are not fareing well after the 10 inch rain on Monday. You can see them behind the Malvas. Any ideas?

As long as the soil drains I'd just leave them be. They'll perk up once the sun comes out again. Ours are a sorry sight too after heavy rains, but they always spring back.

 

Yes dont panic yet. Sun does wonders for the plants.
;o)

I agree! You wanna talk about hollyhocks?? Capt Kirk sent me some seeds 2 summers ago and they are MONSTERS!!! The biggest hollyhocks in my yard!! I'm an idiot when it comes to posting pictures, otherwise I'd be glad to post a photo to show them off. One is probably 4 feet tall and hasn't even sent up the bloom stalk yet! Just leaves! Big, beautiful, healthy looking leaves, almost as tall as I am!!!

 

Hey take the photos an put them on photobucket.
I would love to guide you in you job .

I wanna see them. Mine are about 3 feet tall an getting buds. Lots of them died..

I hope this worked! This plant is awesome!
Turns out it was taller than I thought. :-D

 

You did it!!!! Yay! Good for you!
And wow! That is some hollyhock... I'm so excited to see it - and you too!

 

MaryAnn, In that picture both me & the hollyhock look bigger than I thought we were

 

Cute as can be is what I see!

 

Me too, db, me too. You both look smashing, stratsmom, but the "plant" to the left looks a bit cuddlier than then one to the right.

 

Awww shucks

 

WOW, that Oregon weather must really agree with them. They never got that big and bushy here. Be sure to take some pics when they bloom!

 

WOW! What a awe inspiring hollyhock. They don't do too well for me, but have struggle through and I so enjoy their blooms. Yours is gorgous I'm green with envy and can't wait to see the photos when they bloom. From everyones!
