May I suggest getting a clip on light with a large reflector (you will find one in the hardware section of your favorite big box store). Put a 150 watt flourescent light bulb in it. The kind that is curled. It uses 30 watts of power but gives 150 watts of light. Place it directly over your plant. If you have nothing to clip it to you can hang it. In addition set your plant in a humidity tray. I use a pot saucer with a layer of stones or marbles so that the plant sits above the water. The evaporation of the water gives the plant additional humidity.
