URGENT! HELP! HELP!! I need URGENT help with the newly bought Chrysanthemum. I planted these to the pots last Sunday and the plant looked fine for a couple of days. Now, both the leaves and the flowers are drooping badly and I am not sure what I could do to revive them back. Please help, I don't want these plants to die because of lack of care.

Cut the flowers off and put them in a vase to enjoy inside. Leave the buds on.

Cut off the larger leaves that are drooping.

@brightcolours Thanks, I will try this and let you know, but I really hesitate to cut the flowers off... Would it be OK if I leave the flowers?

No. The plant is very stressed. Cutting the flowers off is a kindness for it.

@brightcolours is there a way to add photos here, I guess the plants are recovering after following your advice though one of the plants is in very bad shape.
