thanks for your critique ^^ Actually I chose between having them there and not having them there. Before I have heard that the backgrounds had been too boring so I took a shot with them too

I'm going to give you an honest opinion. No sugar coating. The point of this is not to pat you on the back, critiques are meant to help you improve. This is not, however, an attempt to be mean in any way. Just honest.
Vision:This is a pretty common plant seen in a pretty common composition.
Originality:Nothing really original about this. Perhaps next time
try another composition. Maybe shoot from below, next to the ground and up? Understand that flower pictures like this are exceedingly common so the composition is vital.
Technique:The post processing in this makes it feel oldish, which is the fad of the moment but shows no effort involved.
Impact: there isn't a whole lot to say positively for this photo. It's pretty sure, but not much beyond that.
Advice: Flower pictures are common. Exceedingly so. There are ways to make your flower pictures stand out from the crowd but it's going to take some thought. The post processing here kills this image. Keeping a more natural look would be more appealing. As for the composition, I've mentioned it a number of times and it really is that important. Adherence to the rule of thirds would have helped this significantly. Even getting closer would have made for a stronger image. If the flowers themselves aren't particularly unique and interesting, you can also do the old trick of misting them gently with water until beads form on their petals. This gives a common subject more interest by mixing textures. A tripod would help considerably with this kind of image as well, allowing you to use a lower ISO.
Cheers!

ah so cute and a wonderful photo as well... i know how difficult it is to catch these...
in my series "flowers along the way" there come some similar ones later on - my daughter showed them to me when we were underway...
yesterday i saw forget-me-nots along that same way - i'm not sure if i have overlooked them before or if they have opened up in the meantime...
