What should I do? I just bought this lavender plant yesterday and it’s already dying. I had it outside on my balcony because i get 6hrs of morning sun but I think the wind was to harsh and ruined the plant. The pictures are just a day apart :(

Lavender is very tough. I doubt it was the wind. They like full sun so find a good spot and leave it there so it can bounce back. Sometimes they need a little time to adjust to a new environment. I have the same type - Spanish lavender. I kept it on my front porch, full Georgia afternoon sun, for a few months then planted it in the ground a few weeks ago.
