Define "true blue". Blue comes in all sorts of shades, pale to deep.

I have and like ABSOLUTE TREASURE and NAVY BLUES, though you might consider the latter too violet.

If you can find AUTUMN SAPPHIRE, that seems to be blue-ish. (I'm not sure than mine is the true plant.)

You will more likely find "truer" blue shades in the pastels, than in deeper shades.

Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
