This just seems to cry out to be in color. So much of the beauty of a flower is the color. It's hard to tell if it has dulcet tones or not when it is all just shades of gray.
I think this needs a little more contrast or a bit of burning to bring out the shadows. The shot itself is great, it just doesn't "pop". You can reduce the noise a bit by gently running it through a program called Neat Image. ( I apologize if the noise was intentional).
