A: Sevin is a toxic pesticide for killing insects. Your plants appear to have a fungus. Tidy them up by cutting away all the dead and dying leaves and they may be fine. If leaves continue to yellow take samples to you local independent garden center or nursery for a more accurate ID and control. Excessive water and fertilizing will weaken these plants.
