I don’t suggest using live plants; it’s too much of a hassle. Crested geckos are bulky animals and if the plants are not really hardy they will not last long. It is easier just use silk plants. Falconer is right; there really is no need for lighting. If possible heat your room in the 75-78F range with a small space heater. If that’s not possible use a small wattage incandescent red bulb 24/7. However if your room is normally in this range, no need for any alternate heat sources =).
