My Conditional Formatting does not highlight rows, only cells in a column

Hello! I can't figure out why my conditional formatting does not work as intended: I have 5 columns - A, B, C, D, E - and I simply want the rows, where cell E is empty, to be green and the rows, where cell E has a value - turn red. Pretty straight forward. In case individual cell format matters, I have entire columns A, B, and C with default "General" formatting and remaining D and E - as Date.

My formulas look as follows:

Formula:

=ISBLANK(E2)

for green and

Formula:

=NOT(ISBLANK(E2))

for red; both applied to

Formula:

=$A$2:$E$99999

What happens is that only cells in the A column are turning red of the rows where the date value in column E is entered.

Wow, that was super easy! Thank you very much, protonLeah!
