Raspberry plant

Hi, I bought a raspberry plant and have it on the patio - south facing. In the last week or so, the leaves are turning a silver colour and are drying up/shrivelling. What is the cause and can I do anything to save the plant?

I'm watering it regularly and it has no obvious signs of infestation - although I am a complete novice, so might have missed something!

Many thanks in advance!

    Put it in the shade. It will have an underdeveloped root system and cannot draw up water fast enough in sunlight.

    Thanks fidgetbones - I'll give that a try!
