    I´m sorry, but wilting bottom leaves are not a good sign. Do you remember disturbing the root balls? Marguerites are not specially fussy about their roots but there's a limit (usually the amount of roots held together by a clod). Anyway, I'm thinking of marguerite as an argyranthemum, do you mean something else?

    yes that is what I mean.... I just checked label on it, it is not a lot of wilting just at the very bottom, I didn't disturb the root balls ...

    Do not overwater them, it is a common mistake. Keep the pots in a sheltered place and observe. Perhaps the plants were a bit aged and they are just stressed for the change of environment!
