No, it'll come back next year, but you might want tohave a spray handy to treat for hollyhock rust - the dark flowered forms are much more prone to it.

This one has suffered severley with rust this year.

It started to look a bit sorry fir itself, and it was spreading faster than I could remve the leaves. In the end it started looking bare and every single leaf was infected.

I will certainly be buying a spray to try and prevent it, and treat any that appears.

Thanks Bamboo.
