Hoorah for naturally purple subjects in a challenge with far too many non-purple subjects hue-shifted to meet the challenge! Composition doesn't feel quite right to me, especially with the cropped background stem behind the main one and the dark shadows behind the middle ground flowers.

You may want to move the camera a bit to seperate the flower from the stem in the bg and leave less space on the right.

The lighting is a bit harsh and the plant a bit soft. Also, the bright background is very distracting.
