Robin: Put it in the shade until it recovers. Also don't be stingy with the water at this point. It doesn't have roots in the new mix. Waiting until that mix dries when it doesn't have roots in it yet is too conservative on the water. Sometimes reading the container forum makes people paranoid about watering even when their plant is burning up.

The stems from the newly planted bareroots did crisp up after sun down. I was happy that it showed signs of recovery. But today it was 80 F (I did water it in the morning)and the tops of the plant drooped again. Like Diane said I decided to give them some protection from the sun(since I did observe they were up at sundown yday..) I have made holes in white grocery bags and tied it around the plants. Hope this helps them during recovery...

Be careful NOT to over-water, if that plants aren't turning different colors and just seem limp it's from over-watering. Just give them time and see what happens. But try to not water them for a couple of days.

Well you can't split them apart at this stage but you could move both of them together into a much larger pot without too much trouble. Just try to lift the entire plant out of the pot keeping the root ball intact. Set it into the new pot on top of a couple of inches of fresh potting soil on the bottom and then fill in all around the sides and water it is well. You will want the new pot to be several inches bigger all around than the old one, the bigger the better. I tend to shelter transplants for a couple of days out of the direct sun until they recover.
