Just plain white. It is just beautiful it does not need anything more, unless you have a fun binding.

How about a picket fence. White background and the fence a green that matches. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/69383650483327578/

If you can and have the where with all to do another row of applique I think it would be wonderful. Then a scalloped white border. It could even be a broken up type round with the applique every other block.

Beautiful quilt top. I would use a white border so as not to detract from all your beautiful work.

I agree with RedGarnet. I think another applique border would be gorgeous.

IIf you only need about 5inches, you can consider a 2.5 " plain colored , border, in a color that is in the applique, lilac, green blue, you have many choices. If you need more, add another colored border.
Good luck
