The problem I have with the background is that the white flowers are almost exactly the same value whether in or out of focus, so the background obscures the edges of the foreground. Also, I think your primary subjects take up too little of the frame.

I'd recommend cropping fairly tightly on a limited number of flowers and working for as clean a background as you can get. For the in-focus flower on the upper right, I think you could move a bit to your left and get a nice, dark background that will highlight the flower very well.

It think that black and white could work with this subject, since the palette is limited anyway, but in B&W I would still recommend making the same edits I recommended above.
