Expert Response
The soil should be moist, but not soggy. Make sure there is good drainage. If the plant appears root bound - lots of roots but not much soil - you could repot it in a container not more than 1/3rd bigger than the present pot.. Otherwise, follow the suggestions in the Longfield Garden article to take good care of your lily. Good luck.
