Answer 1

It could be transplant shock. Plus it's already hot in June for planting so you must take extra care to keep it hydrated. I would just keep it watered, but not saturated, till it recovers.

Answer 2

These trees prefer to be in the shade. They can tolerate moist soils, but they don't do well in direct sunlight, for the most part.

They are, also, disease prone.
