I agree it is not K. ritualis which has much broader less tough leaves and long ciliate margins (see http://mygarden.rhs.org.uk/blogs/plant_scientist/…).  I believe this is K. hirsuta, which is often offered by seed companies and generally comes true to type albeit with some variation - the leaves are often more scabrid than hairy.
