Q.Transplanted small plant, now leaves all wilting

Zone Gatineau, Quebec, Canada | Anonymous added on April 28, 2020 | Answered

Received a lovely, multi-plant arrangement gift basket which sat in bright room, no direct sun for approx 5 weeks. Transplanted each plant into individual pots but within a week, the Bush on Fire Croton has wilted horribly, leaves are completely drooping down (some even falling off). It was Was placed in a sunny, east window, no drafts or heating threats. What happened?! Did it not adjust to the new location and go into shock? Any hope it’ll revive? Thank you.
