Fair enough to ask a question but could you not have made it gardening
related ?

E G - What plants are in your greenhouse right now ?

But not everyone has a greenhouse. What's in yours?

I will refrain from answering your question exactly - but will qualify it
with the plants premise.

Penstemon cuttings.
Leeks
Strawberries
Cacti
Fuchsias
X cuttings (name escapes me !)

BTW --- Puter, Hospital id pass and a glass of wine is the answer to
the OPs question.

Fuchsias, pelargoniums, scented pelargoniums
Various bulbs, eg Pancratium
Nicotiana sylvestris

Lots of other overwintering things and seedlings too small to be planted
out.
Cuttings of wayfaring tree and various other shrubs
Butterwort (in flower)
Large jasmine, also in flower

A couple of tubs of mixed salad leaves and one of lettuce
Two comfortable chairs and a wind-up radio.

When I didn't have a greenhouse - and I never had one until I married
Ray - I'd have had to give a plant related answer (if insisted upon in
following your criteria but answering the OP at the same time) as x
number of catalogues, desired plants lists, order forms, planting
schemes roughed out rather badly, and probably some daft idea for a
pond somewhere. All of these would have sculled around my desk for
months - maybe a year, nobody ever accused me of being 'tidy' - and
would have been supplanted entirely by what I actually did by guess and
by God in the end.

BTW --- Puter, Hospital id pass and a glass of wine is the answer to
the OPs question.

Goodness, it's to be hoped the contents of the desk don't complement
one another!! ;-)

OOps - 24hrs behind schedule - delivery arrived today.

I am looking forward to Win 7 - totally bored with XP and glad to have
avoided the vista experience.
Commissioning is now the first job for twentyten.
Good Luck certainly needed and welcomed.
