Red vein sorrel is wilting

[Tarragon2017]

What Can I be doing wrong , I bought a batch of plants online most were in a dire state but I have managed to save the Parsley but the sorrel is wilting any ideas

Incidently my Thyme and Sage are also drying up , has this summer down south really been that dry

Sorrel seems to need a deep root run to do any good. It does best out in the ground, but if you have to keep it in a pot put it in the deepest one you can.

And yes, this summer really has been that dry down here. I've been doing rain dances but they haven't worked. Obviously I don't have the skills.

Shall I try planting it out before it 2 late i suspect that shady area is ok for sorrel, Maybe it will perk up in open ground at the moment its in a 1 litre pot as it is kinda small, and well I heard not to overpot, which I believe is kinda myth now
