From Milliken Iris Gardens catalog, 1945: ROYAL SALUTE (Milliken) This is one of the few good dark blue-purple irises. The petals, both standards and fall, are broad, and the flowers which have good substance seem to be the bluest of any of the so called blue purple irises. 3-1/2 feet. 35c, 3 for 90c. 12 for $3.25.
