Newly planted hydrangea turning yellow and droopy


Hello,
Just planted 7 Limelight Prime Hydrangeas 2 days ago and two of them look droopy and their leaves are turning yellow and falling off. The other 5 hydrangeas were bought from another nursery and look perfect (they’re in the next flower bed with same conditions). Could it be just transplant shock and what to do about it?
Any idea what the problem is and how to save them? I’ll be mulching this weekend, placing a water tester, maybe placing some root stimulator if you think it’s a good idea and installing a drip irrigation (pls recommend me how much water they need a day I got 2gal valves for them but idk how long to run them). The soil should be acidic as it was filled with evergreens and rhododendrons but I’ll test it. I’ve been watering them once a day in the morning ~7am.
