Planted yesterday, leaves drooping!

Planted yesterday by professional. He said water 8 gallons a day for 3 weeks. But soil around root was soaked this morning, so only gave 3-4 gallons, then 3 more a few hours later. Definitely more blossoms today, but the leaves are droopy and a few have yellow-brown spots. Is it just shock and should recover, or am I over/under-watering? I’m also adding some pics of some of the leaves. Only a few are like this.

could be overwatering, or shock
I agree with @liv91109 - just pure shock and maybe too much water. The first year mine was planted it was NOT happy with me. But she made it through the winter and now she put off beautiful growth!
Could be you need to fertilize it.
@MagneticTawapou a newly planted tree? I was advised against, but what would you recommend?
Looks like overwatering to me too. Also check the leaves for dark spots. If you have spots then the leaves have fungus from too much water on the leaves. I had this problem with a newly planted tree. I also disagree with the recommendation from the β€œprofessional β€œ.
