Hi,
There is no such thing as "best". Best is whatever color you like. Generally, the word "warm" when describing color refers to yellowish. Gro Lux bulbs have traditionally been on the pink side. Since we don't know what color you like it's impossible to advise with any real accuracy. JamesC has a sticky in the lighting section which shows photos of some of these colors. Check it out.

Cheers,
 
I know that some of them are good for plants so want to buy a good bulbs for plants but do not know which ones
 
Well, there are a couple of myths about lights, one of which is that some lights are better for plants than others. Check this thread which explains why this is mythical: PL-11 Tubes

The second most prevalent myth is that one has to change bulbs after some given time period. That myth is busted in this thread: Two new tubes...

Cheers,
