Questions About Hardy Lilies

The MOTH fell in love with this Lily when we were at a local garden center a few weeks ago:

So, we bought it and I transplanted it into this container.  Since, then it has been losing flower petals pretty much every day. I assume this is pretty normal, but I have not been able to find much information about "Hardy Lilies" on line, and they are not mentioned in my plant book.

My questions are:
  • Once the flower petals fall off, should I remove/pinch off the little nub at the bottom or just leave it.
  • Will any flowers grow back this season, or are they gone for good? 
  • Once all the flowers are gone, what do I do - should I cut the foliage or just leave it? 
  • What do I do with it over the winter?
Any help would be fabulous!
