new leaves on my camellia

Question

The new leaves seem to droop a lot. They haven’t turned brown or dropped off. It’s a new plant and has only been in the ground about a month. I water it when it seems dry and try not to over water. First time I’ve tried a camellia. I have found a few dry leaves that weren’t new. I pulled those off and tossed them. Any ideas to help me out? I really want this plant to make it!
