I can understand your dilemma! I love the monochrome version, however the colours in the original are intriguing. Particularly the colours in the stone wall in the background. I know I would play for hours with various edits but maybe life is too short for that with every image

I like the original with green stems and a bit of colour on the background wall ! The flowers nicely standout.

Thank you both, seems like the colour version is ahead at the moment!The colour one works best for me.
I still like the "pop" of the daisies in the mono but have to admit that i too like the colour version

I can see why you have tried the mono conversion but the flower stems and leaves have suffered for it. This one has to go down the colour route I think. On the other hand, there is a lot to play with in 'levels' and with the contrast but the endless temptation to play has already been commented on above.

Took this shot with the intention of making it Monochrome.
But having seen the original version I wasn't so sure:
