Secondary colors are creted by mixing equal amounts 2 primary colors. A tint is created by mixing white or black to a color. Pink is created by mixing red and white, therfor pink would be a TINT and not a secondary color.
You actually DO have a small bit of purple in the photo however, to the left of the left tulip. The green also qualifies as a secondary color. However, neither the small bit of purple, nor the green stand out as a main subject. I would say that this photo doesn't work well for the purpose of the challenge.
Setting that aside, I'll talk about the photo itself.
The lighting appears to be a bit bright on the flowers. See the center of the tuilp on the left? No detail what so ever there. The brightness washes it all out.
The flowers stand out nicely on the background. Looks like you did some desaturation there, and I think that it works very well. No distracting elements in the backgruond.
However, because the focus is nice and crisp on the background, it makes the softness of the flowers really stand out. I think I would prefer the opposite, with the flowers in sharp focus and the background blurred slightly.
Pretty colors. Just not for the challenge.
