I transplanted my weeping cherry tree to a bigger pot. After only a few hours some of the leaves started to wilt and brown in spots. I think I planted it too deep and it didn't get enough water. I removed it and re-planted correctly, giving it plenty of water. Will it survive or did I kill it? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to save this plant?

You should transplant in mid to late winter to lessen the chance of transplant shock. You transplanted your tree twice. It seems as though it is in shock. Hopefully it will survive.
I am hoping it survives. There is still some leaves at the bottom that are green and healthy looking.
Did you plant in an area with too much sun?
After transplanting it the first time, i put it in an area where there is sun.
We don't have any of these lovelies, but friends who do say they are quite sturdy and rebound from many traumas. It probably went into a temporary shock from two moves. They are a lot like people! Change is stressful. Also like people, they get used to things and settle in. I am told they like sun, lots of space for their roots, and an area that drains well.
Post back with an update on your plant.
