I have to piece the backing for my quilt and want to add a 5" strip between the two prints. Which color solid would go better?

Not the pale blue. I personally like the mauve to bring out the flowers.

All are nice but the purple or orange would really be pretty. Marilyn oops thought it was purple but it is mauve.

Since there are different descriptions to the colors, I do not like the very bottom one as well as the other two.

not the light blue, blends in too much....
my eye is drawn to the purple, but both the purple and red work... In my opinion.....

Are you using one of those as binding, if so I would pick that color. Otherwise, I like the top one-orange-the best.
