I will look but for the record, I have seen both plants side by side with my own eyes (and currently grow a pair of Firesticks). Now that I look around on the net I see the names are treated as interchangeable all across the web. What a nightmare. Compare these two pictures and you'll see there is a difference. They are representative of the two different plants. There is another picture of the first plant in the database so you can see what the rest of it looks like.
"Rosea" is red, fading to pink. "Firesticks" is orange, fading to yellow. My understanding of plant terms is that "Rosea" refers to a reddish color. There's no red in the Firesticks that I've seen. Maybe you can get red if you really stress them, or turn your camera up to 11, but normally they are orange, yellow, and green depending on how much light the plant is getting, and even within the same plant (center stems tend to be shaded more and thus more green), Firesticks is a very popular landscape plant in Southern California, readily available, easy to keep looking nice, does well with little water, does not get huge. Rosea is in contrast rather uncommon (I've only seen it once).
Thank you for the tip on how to move images, I did not know it was that easy. I have made some changes to the (mostly) wild type tirucalli listing and hopefully those will be helpful once they are approved. (For example, the plant is a tree not a groundcover.) Still learning the ropes here. Thank you for your patience.
