Novice question...
2 weeks ago I repotted 2 phormium and a red robin that I had purchased. They were repotted in pots that I put decent drainage in with used brand new compost and they seemed to thrive.
The last week they are all really drooping and look to be struggling. As a novice I’m wondering if there is something I need to do? I have kept them watered but certainly not overwatered. Is there anything I need to do to make them look great again? Thanks in advance

doing something wrong. They all get 3-4 hours of sun per day and I’m at a loss what could be wrong. Thanks in advance
Also I would move them into the shade until they recover.
lastly did you buy them from a reliable source?
The dead leaves on the red robin I'm guessing were new and bright red. If they got nipped by frost it may have killed off the tender new leaves.
The best plan is to keep them sheltered but in good light, keep the compost just moist and see what happens over the next few weeks. Hopefully they'll both recover and you'll start to see new growth appear. Then you can cut off the dead bits.
