Pink Muhly dying?


Hello all!
I really need some advice and some help with my pink muhly ornamental grass. Ilive in Charlotte, North Carolina and we've had some good weather recently with no rain and temperatures ranging from low sixties to high eighties. I bought a three pack of pink muhlys from Costa Farms sold at Costco. I'll attach a picture of what the grass looked like in the store when I bought it. I brought the grass home six days ago on August 20th. I've left the grasses in the plastic containers from Costco because we are going to be making up the landscaping beds for the grasses to be planted. They've been sitting in their black plastic containers facing southeast getting full sun. I've been giving them a little water every day or every other day. They started off green and floppy when I first got them but look to be dying now. A lot of the stems have turned brown and they're still just as floppy if not more floppy. I've read they may flower starting in the fall which I didn't expect because they're not established yet but it looks to me like they're dying completely before fall has really even started. Worst case I can return the grasses to Costco if they are a lost cause but I don't want to do that. I really love the look of this grass, but I have never had any experience with gardening and wanted to give it a try but don't know what I'm doing and fear the grass may be too far gone? Please let me know if anyone has any thoughts or advice. I really appreciate it
