I bought a raspberry plant a week ago. It looked great. Nice green leaves. But now the leaves are turning brown. I don't know what I did wrong or how to fix it. We have had rain past 2 days without much sun but they were turning brown before that happened. I have it planted in the ground not a pot and added proper dirt to it when planted.
Any advice would be appreciated. First time planting raspberries.
Thank you

It's just that your plant has not settled its roots in properly yet. As a result it is loseing water through its leaves faster than the roots can replace it.
Cut your plant down to just a few buds from the ground.
It will soon make up the height again and it will allow the roots to establish.
