If they are sprouted and blooming, it would be best for the plant to wait. Enjoy the blooms, and then allow the green leaves to absorb light and feed the bulb for six weeks. Then you can stop watering it and let the green leaves die down. Once they are gone, dig them up and divide them. While you have them out of the dirt, you might also want to go ahead and let them dry out then store them so that they do not get wet or light. Then you can replant them in more pots or in the ground after the first frost.

What you need to do is get a pot which it about 1 ins larger all the way round, then buy a small pag of seed compost and add some sharp sand or polystiron balls to the seed compost, lillies like to be packed tight in a pot.
Pot them up like this for 3 growing seasons then at the end of the 3rd year devide the whole thing in to 3 or even 4.

Yes you can repot them either all together into a larger pot by just transferring them or you can split them through the bulb and repot them that way. If you choose the second option I would suggest that you wait until after they have bloomed this year, but it can be done no problems.

each lillie will have nodule bulbs at the root, break off and re-pot.
