Lilium formosanum advice

I too, as Leo did, bought a young Lilium formosanum for the first time this
spring and it flowered! I was shocked. It's the ssp or var pricei which is
supposed to be shorter. It's outside in full sun in a pot and gets water
regularly so it's still green. I have read that they flower within two years
of sowing as does L. wardii which also flowered much to my delight. Both are
fragrant. I haven't a clue whether to let it go dormant now or let it go
naturally as do my other lilies. Once we get rain or nights get cooler, I
don't water nearly as much and a lot of my plants slide into dormancy.

Any help is appreciated.
