Peace Lily
I lit this with a YN560 in a 24 inch softbox, camera left and above, at 11 o'clock. For fill light, I hand held a small mirror, camera right at 5 o'clock to bounce a little light back onto the darker side. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. I used side lighting because I wanted to create the shadows that reveal texture and shapes.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash, and the equipment that I use. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
