sweet I love planetaries.
Here' my list:
NGC 5873 - Lupus
Very high surface brightness PN, the challenge is finding it and resolving it as an exceptionally tiny orb floating amongst a mass of stars. Diameter is 7" and Mag 11.
IC 4406 - Lupus
Fairly bright, dumbell shaped PN. The challenge is seeing the very faint extensions stretching E and W from the centre.
