Hello Diana,
You asked what the differences were of
Kirkii and Kirkii V. Pulchera etc.

Kirkii has leathery leaves up to 2.5' to 6' long, though they are 
supposed to go to 9' long, and rigid. I have never seen anything this 
large. one of my plants has a leaf 3.5' long. 3-7" wide 1-3 leaves 
per growth, lightish green and lightly mottled with a lighter 
green. 

Kirkii var. pulchera leaves very dark green in some a bluish green to 
almost black, blotched with an off white creamy botches, the edges 
are reddish and undulate. My plant has two to three leaves per 
growth.

Kirkii copper form is just a colour variant of  var. pulchera the 
colour is a metallic copper colour I find this a lot slower growing 
then the sp and the var.

Super clone is  a more robust clone of the species.
