How do I care for my Easter Lilly? Light? Water?

Light: indirect or bright-diffused light Water: keep soil moderately moist. Do not allow plant to stand in water. Temperature: Moderate.65F-70F during the day and 50F- 60F at night Tips: Blooms will last longer if you place the plant in a cool location (50F - 60F) at night. Remove the yellow anthers before they sheed pollen to prevent pollen from staining the white blossoms.
Reflowering: after flowering, keep the lily in a well-lit location and continue watering. Set lily outdoors when the danger of frost has passed. in fros-free climates, you can plant the lily in the garden permanently. in coller areas, bring the lily indoors atrer foliage dies back or before autumn's first frost. After foliage dies back, leave plant in its pot in a cool, dark area for at least one month, keeping the soil quite dry. After leaves emerge, bring plant into a bright window, increase watering and fertilize with a water soluble plant food. With proper care, you can enjoy several seasons of blooms with you lily.
Hope this helps your Easter Lily.

I thought my easter lilly was dead and was putting the dirt into the compost pile and discovered some garlic sized yellow bulbs. They seem firm and have little corms falling off of them. What do I do at this time.
