Overall i taken tons of photos of these plants/flowers, this one stood out from the crowd, the out of focus areas was just as i pictured them in my head.
I have gotten some questions earlier if i make the out of focus dots using blur or texture in photoshop. The answer is No, the areas is due to very shallow depth of field on the camera lens, in this case F2,8.
I focus on the middle part of a scenery to get the front and back out of focus aka Bokeh. You can read more about it here if you want to: [link]
In photoshop i removed grain using noiseware, and gave it a cross processing using curves adjustment layers and selective color. i cropped to square and resized.

First thing's first, beautiful title! It's similar to one of my all time favorite novels The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I love that book, and this photo embodies it so well.
Okay, so now for my bit of critique. For me the blurry flowers in the center of the photo, just seem a bit odd. I think with photos like this, the center should be crisp and clear, so we know what or who is the star of the show. Also, another thing I feel wouldn't hurt this, is a bit more sunlight.
Well that's it for my it of critique, great work, and hope this helped.
