As a horticulturist and interior plant designer, I spend a lot of time thinking about how to keep plants thriving in my clients’ homes. As a New Yorker with a sizable houseplant collection in a not-so-sizable apartment that gets very little direct sunlight, this is a personal issue, too.
Over the past decade, I’ve tried almost every grow light on the market. For a long time, the only options that actually helped my plants were terrible for my decor—functional but ugly, and always casting that extremely displeasing purple glow. Way to ruin the mood!
The situation has thankfully improved, but I’ve still struggled with finding something suitable for larger plants. That is, until I spotted this tall, sleek grow light from Sansi that easily passes for a chic floor lamp. It miraculously checks all my other wishlist boxes, too—starting with providing full-spectrum 4000K daylight that registers as a warm, natural white (nothing UFO-like here!) and a powerful 10,200 lumens for brightness.
Another key feature: The unique construction (using energy-saving ceramic technology) concentrates light directly and evenly on your plants, which accelerates and promotes bushy, full growth, rather than leggy, bare stems caused by the plant having to stretch toward the light.
The adjustable-height lamp even includes five dimmable brightness levels and a remote control timer, allowing you to get precise with how much “sunlight” you dial in—especially useful if your collection has varying light needs (plants can get sunburned, too!).
All this indoor greenery goodness in a stylish, minimalist profile? It’s the complete package for any design lover who’s also an avid green thumb.
