I'll try to give you some feedback. First off, I normally like stems of flowers to "come in" from a corner. I know it's not possible in all images but I feel it creates a more pleasing image. Also, I would probably try to clone out the black dots on the leaves.

It's very slightly dark, I'd boost it a little in PP.
