Default sick looking hibiscus

Hi
I have a few hibiscus that aren't looking that great, they have some
yellowing on the leaves & a few black spots & generally just look yuk,
what can I do for them?
cheers


Are they the tropical sorts, or native ones? I know the tropical ones get
badly affected by frost. Mine look miserable after each winter. But early
spring, after the frosts have finished, you prune them back, and they come
up great again.
