Wargrave Pink issues

I am just wondering if I need to change the position of my Wargrave Pink to a less sunnier position. It's recently been planted but repeatedly starts keeling over as if it is short of water every couple of days. I've give it about 4-5ltr's of water today as I did the other day and it's perked up, but as you can see quite a few of the outer leaves are discoloured or have already died. Although it is flowering, it doesn't look terribly healthy. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Cheers.

    I think it's okay, just trying to adapt to its new conditions and discarding it's oldest leaves on the outside. Geraniums should cope with hot sunny places so don't overwater it either.
    Give it time.

    Mine grows like a weed in the shade, sun, anywhere... I’m still trying to get rid of it except for one or two patches.

    It took me several years to get rid of Wargrave Pink. In my dry conditions it was an absolute thug, so try less water.
