Photo of Calla Lilies - advice needed!

Hi! I received a gift of some beautiful Calla Lilies last year. My aunt told me that since they had been forced to flower, they wouldn't come back again and so when they died she took them home to compost them. But she noticed the beginnings of new growth and so put them into a pot and returned them to me when they began to show shoots a few weeks ago. I'm a bit concerned that the pot she put them in is too small though. Is it too late to repot when they're shooting like this? And do they even need to be? Any input appreciated on this! I live on the west coast of Ireland, with a south-east facing balcony which only gets morning sun. I take the lilies in at night as it's still quite cold here. Thanks for any help!
