Progeny with dad, made 5 years ago. Not too special, but still cute. Mom is in bud at the moment, but still a good week or more from opening.

 
Yes, very nice Charlie, and I like the kid on the left, it took up a nice dorsal from dad. lol

I would love to see the mom, too.

I assume the kids are Doll's Kobold?
I am nursing a whole bunch of them in the hope that I'll find one that I like.
 
Chuck ain't bad at all, quite the stud;) I sure those two boys (or are they girls?) will prove their worth after college of course.
 
I do believe that's the first charlie that I've seen that I
really like. Most look quite over-balanced by the dorsal.
Now dad is just right and the kids ain't bad neither.
 
Thank you all. Yes dad is pretty good. It is an old clone, slow grower, but a reliable bloomer and holds its dorsal nice and flat, with good shape and component proportions.
Although the kids are cute, I can't help but always feel a bit disappointed in the hybrid in general. Dad is handsome, mom is beautiful, but the kids are kind of washed out? There are about another 5 youngsters working on their first blooms, I am hoping that among them is the 'Belle of the Ball'
 
They are all nice, species does look better with balanced dorsal
Kids each on their own are pretty nice, too bad to give high expectations and implied lack of quality
