Silent, I am attaching here a couple of pictures of "Coppertone' as you requested. I have never owned K kirkii pulchra v. pulchra, but I am led to believe the splotchy coloration pattern on Coppertone is the same as on the pulchra variety, only v. pulchra does not have the salmon color. The leaves of both are stiff and brittlelike, and somewhat shiny.

I did not recognize the description and picture John G. posted we seem to now be calling S. erythraeae aka S. schweinfurthii. I do have this plant, and my clone has no channels or grooves which I think shows in the attached picture. This species, according to J. Chahinian in his latest book might show a "round, shallow channel". Chahinian also says the leaves show "several longitudinal deeply impressed lines", but that could come from specimens that are dry. The leaves are normally upright and do not 'weep'.

How about a pic ?
there is a pic in my book somewhere which, after a brief search, I
believe has become buried in a drawer full of dog pedigrees. I know there
is a drawing of it with a broken leaf. the leaves are cylindrical and
do not fan at all, they are slightly wiggly but almost entirely
vertical.
