Potted Beni Kawa Japanese Maple

Hello!

I am very distressed, my fairly new Beni Kawa Maple is looking very unhappy.

I purchased it about three weeks ago and put it in a larger pot. The tree is about 9 feet tall. I put rocks in the bottom of the pot and topsoil around the root ball. I have been trying to keep the soil moist but not wet.

Over the past four days I have begun to notice a few leaves turning brown and curling up. Yesterday there were many more. Primarily, it seems to be the leaves at the tips of the branches.

It has been close to 100 degrees everyday since I got it and it is pretty much in full sun. Could this be the problem. Maybe it is the watering? Too much, too little?

Please help, I don't want to loose this beutiful tree.

Thanks.
