I planted ten flowering currant bushes in full sun. Top leaves on all look sun scorched or rust-colored. Leaves under plants are green. What do I do?

Some of my garden had that as well. Try watering on the cooler parts of the day, either early am or evening whichever works for your climate. Give them a good water in the morn and check on them later, if the soil looks dry around it give them a sprinkle to get it moist. Hope that helps :)
Fruiting currants actually prefer light shade/dappled sun.  Mine are verry happy between a towering elm that shades them most of the day and a large silver maple that dapples the afternoon sun.  I have red & black varieties
