Looks like the "Floor Lamp" from Lowe's is just a regular lamp (sorta like the old ones we had back in the 50's & 60's) with the 3 adjustable shades you can move around! I might have to make a trip to Lowe's to check the price on those. You could point the 3 lights at different angles for the plants. I wonder if she is using those special "Grow" light bulbs, or just regular light bulbs in it? Farther down that thread someone shows a plant stand with the shop lights just like the one I got at Wal-Mart for $29.99. The shop lights were $7.96 each. Here's a photo of my stand I put in the study and moved plants in from the deck and Florida Room for the winter.
