Is the soil dry or wet to the touch?

Wilting can be due to lack of water or to much water.

Does the pot drain well? Make sure the soil is well draining and that the plant is not sitting in water. Soggy soil and wet roots can lead to root rot.
Your plant will take much less water indoors than it did outdoors.

Here are some links to help you.
