I had a gorgeous Australian Tree Fern that I transplanted to a larger pot . The next day it was all wilted and leaves were dried up. I am sick🤑 What do I do?

Heart breaking. Sorry that happened.  
Trying to diagnose a repotting issue can be hard. Wilted AND dried up in a day sounds like something went really wrong.  Maybe too much sun for a day??? Or the root system was damaged during the transfer. OR, OR, OR...
Post a picture and let's take a look.  
The good thing is there are more available so you can start all over - let us know how it goes 🥰
Green thumbs up

Hi Geri, can you post a photo of it and info such as pot, soil, light it’s getting, what size pot was it in and what size you repotted to, etc? I can tell you that whenever you repot any plant, it goes through some stress. As careful as we may be, roots always suffer some damage. It usually takes a plant from a few days to around a week to recover. It will almost always droop. When you repotted- did you water so that it flowed out of the bottom of the pot?

sometimes the sun is too bright or too short for your tree. it takes a little while but it will be worth it!
