Oceanside turns up as a plant name in grower-to-grower listings. Plants have been offered under it from 2021 to 2026.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.What sellers offer under it is usually tip . The record is not in fact empty. A California nursery that grows it records a — possibly a hybrid, it says — out of the San Diego region, kept for thick columns, long spines, a blue cast and hard, reliable growth.Reported, but not confirmed.It also sells and material under the same name, and compares the leathery, undulating to Conker King.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.

Of the 8 things this page says, 1 is something several independent sources agree on, 1 names who reports it and 6 are marked as something we cannot confirm. Where a line is not settled, it says so underneath.
No source in this library records a cross for Oceanside. 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.
The longer version
A second California nursery also grows and sells it under the name, which is what the tag on the opening line is for. Its listing says nothing about where the plant came from, and places it among several other named clones by look alone — a resemblance, which this library does not carry across as a relationship.Too little stands behind this for us to confirm it.
