Holly smokes. It's beautiful.
As you keep paining try to make the leafs darker as they compete with the flower at the moment. Look at some pictures of leaves and noto how the light reflects across them. Note how the ones in the forgrounds are often bright as they get the most light.
The flower is absolutely gorgeous, I love the red highlights. Infact I like them so much I think you can bring it out a little more for effect and perhaps just a hint more red on the background pettals.
Finally, I think the two red rectangles in the top left and right cornder compete for attention with the red in the flower. I would tone the red down a bit.
Can't wait to see the final work!
Cheers.
