It probably has a bit of transplant shock.
Always use root hormone when transplanting especially if it's a tree or shrub. Actually I use it on everything.
I have even sprinkled some around the trees and the water it well to soak into the roots.
I lost 4 Japanese maples all different kinds from that early freeze we had. Have to start over only have 2 left.

P.S. Remember to keep northerly winds off the tree in winter I built a wind block from bamboo. Nothing helps when you have a spring freeze on the new buds.

This often happens if the tree has been planted in an exposed location in full sun. I have three japanese maples and have found that they just need time to settle before thriving. Don't worry about it too much.

the different solutions I study all regarded exceptionally stable to me. i could ask this - what grow to be the ambience the tree got here from the place you get carry of it. grow to be it starting to be indoors, in the colour, shielded from the climate. If the plant grow to be field grown it could have not been hardened to the solar once you get carry of it. this is stressful to tell on the time of purchase, yet an trustworthy nurseryman will inform you in case you ask. possibly the plant needed to be presented to the solar slowly earlier it grow to be planted. additionally my adventure with Acer species is they do unlike being in the wind. My gut feeling is that next twelve months the solar is in basic terms no longer a situation however the wind nevertheless might desire to. additionally, you may desire to no longer likely be planting / moving deciduous wood till each and all of the leaves have fallen and that they are dormant. wish this grow to be some help.

keep watering the roots in the evening, not in the heat.
Really, trees should be planted when they are dormant, in the autumn. its just shocked as the feeder roots have had a disruption to thier food.
Acers are quite robust though, i'm sure it'll come through, even if it looses all its leaves this year, be patient and leave it in the ground for next year.

Definitely keep it away from too mucjh sunlight and away from any wind or draughts. It will thrive in sheltered and moist conditions.

Mines the same... youve just got to keep watering it... mines in full sun... but i think partial shade would be the best position... :-)
