Leave them untill after flowering. ( Unless you don't like them then pick the flowers and remove the bulbs inmediately.) Pry the bulbs after flowering out from the bottom. As if you are a mole pulling them into the ground. Try to leave as many leaves on as you can. Plunk Narcissus and Tulips in a seperate pot and leave to die down ( no real nead for soil ). Once the leaves are brown you can wrap them in old newspares and store them in the shed. Replant next autumn. Replant the other plant. The new potground may help it make a new start for this season.

What would you do with lilies that have not sprouted yet can they be moved from pot to ground?
Thanks
Sara:)

Yes - might be best to wait until it isn't frosty - although as you live in London you'd probably be ok to do it now
