The white looks sharper. Dina, this quilt might look nice being crosshatched. Have you consider it??

I like the white over yellow. It looks crisper. But I’m notreally sure if I like the way the inner white blocks (or yellow muddle together with the inner border. Maybe use a different fabric or color that was not used for the inner blocks.Something that coordinates, but stands out.A solid fabric of yellow/orange or very dark green?

I'd use a deeper, golden yellow like that in the print but which is NOT used in the other fabrics. AND I'd make it narrower than what you've cut now. Let it be a "stopper border" ("stops" the action of the blocks before adding the borders so those fabrics don't "bleed" into the borders.)
If you have a piece nearer that color, just lay it along beside the blocks and see if you don't see what I mean. Sort of like this:

I like the more narrow"stop" then wider borders but I have yet another idea use your solid green as the inside narrow border then wider borders of yellow white and yellow again.
Or
Do you have more of the print? how about using that in the border
Narrow green, wider yellow, print, yellow or white then green again . That would mimic the path in the quilt.

Yellow is better to my eye.
