Conker King turns up as a plant name in grower-to-grower listings.Reported by 2 independent sources; we have not seen it ourselves.Plants have been offered under it from 2023 to 2026.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.What sellers offer under it is usually .Reported, but not confirmed.The record is not in fact empty. A California nursery that grows it records a seed-raised hybrid sown by Litorio Secas from a 2018 Playa Bonita seed lot, and says the plant came from Spain.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.It credits Andrea Rossi with much of the propagation, and marks that as its own belief rather than something it can show. It describes a semi-monstrose plant with wavy ribs and hints of under wrinkled , and growth inconsistent enough that no two plants show the same traits.Reported, but not confirmed.

No source in this library records a cross for Conker King. Nobody names a mother or a father for it, and no other entry here names it as a parent.
That is the record, not an oversight: of the 749 names in this library, 693 have no recorded relation either. Most named clones were selected, cut and passed along without anyone writing down what they came out of. A parent goes in here when a source states it and never because a name looks like one — a wrong pedigree would travel further than a blank one, because pedigrees get copied.
If you know where it came from, tell us — a person reads everything before it appears.
