I'd go the manual lighting route with an incandescent dome for the background. You get far more control. The flowers seem to be slightly incandescent as well. However, apart from the sharp reflections, I can't tell whats going on with the floor. It looks like a couple of lights in similar positions casting dark and light shadows, can't tell for sure though.
