Your blocks are fantastic! I like the quasi matches.....because the blocks are, themselves busy and I don't think you see that the corners don't match. But in time that may bother you. So, a good alternative, I think, is the green. It will, I think (can't tell without a full view) set the blocks off and showcase them. As others have said, I'd also consider sashing the blocks.
This is going to be beautiful!

Of the 3 choices you have asked about I like the dark green the best. If you do the setting triangles in say the dark green, then do sashing w/ corner stones, keeping the corner stones the same color as the setting triangles and the sashing a contrasting color it will look like you have alternated the octos w/ a churn dash (or monkey wrench) type block. I have seen it done w/ other octos and it looks great.
