What's on the shelves today? (Photos please)

It's been quiet around here lately, so I thought I'd start a small photo thread...

After disbudding for thrips, I finally have a few blooms again. And more are in the making :-)

Bottom center (below the avocado) are some of my seedlings - they are growing like weeds!

    This is a stand from my plant room with some young plants, some that were disbudded & some bloomers. PowWow is in the center & Ode to Beauty on the bottom. The young streps are starting to come into bloom.

    Those are some beautiful plants terrilou!

    almost makes me consider getting some streps, alas, it's rather obvious that i am running out of space - I am waiting for my unlabelled noid-babies to start blooming, so i can discard any that i have more than two of....

    Thanks Karin. I must say yours are mighty fine also! I am envious of your windowsill. . . it looks to be a great place for plants. What is the name of your large variegated violet in the first photo? That type always catches my eye.

    I love threads like these--it's so fun to see everyone's plants. :)

    Here is my kitchen shelf:

    Terri, the big variegated one is "Wrangler's boot stompin' " - i was talked into taking it by the previous owner who threatened to throw it out because it was getting too big. I almost agree, i could squish 6 semis/minis into the same amount of space :-p but i like the plant overall... i might give it to someone, but wouldn't just trash it...

    Kcgirl - love those kitchen shelves! If DH wasn't been planning on moving again soon, I'd have him put shelves in my window too!

    Lovely plants all! Aegis, the natural light works so well for your plants. I do see a lamp but don't know if you grow any under fluorescents? I like your two pink variegates growing side by side. . . very pretty!

    I don't have quite the right window exposures to produce bloom in all of my plants, so I use no less than a dozen CFL equipped desk-lamps.

    I've hung shop-lights before, but the CFL's in desk-lamps are much more convenient and decorative for me.
