The colour version for me, please. I like it, but I think the focus plane should have been closer to the front, or a wider DOF, to make the whole center part sharp.
I don't mind if the petals become unsharp at the extremes.

Couldn't see the mono one for some reason, James, but I love the colour version. Frame sets if off nicely too.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Also another one that can't see the B&W one
I like the colour one and I'm not worried by the loss of sharpness from the centre to the front of the flower

You probably replaced the original BW image with a new edit - this will break any links you've posted on forums. It will still work for you afterwards because your PC will have the old image in the cache. Hit refresh a few times and you should get a broken link like the rest of us.
Definitely the colour one for me, it has such nice colours I don't see what the BW conversion adds.

Colour for me - because of the subtle colour change in the petals.
The B & W does nothing for me - sorry - but I rarely like B & W

The colour one has the advantage of showing off the various colours in the petals James, as Tim has said.
The BW may come into its own with more dramatic post-processing, but then not everyone likes the end results.
