Hey... landscape art. Have to say that's a rarity on this site. Truly.
But this one I enjoy because it looks like it was an exercise in shading and realism. I say this while looking at the stem/branch part of it. I can see how you were trying to make it look like a realistic twig while showing proper light sourcing while being outside. That.. I'm going to have to say is pretty impressive there pal.
Now, the flower itself...ok, I'm not a major flower person (and that's probably a lie...) but I happen to think it's pretty. I can see the brush strokes you used to do shading here and it's rather calming to look at, just like the flower you drew. No thick brush strokes as it's a white flower, and yet you still managed to convey how soft the flower looks with easy shading on the petals. Not only that but it looks like you reeeeally took some time to try and put detail into drawing each individual seed on the flower. You're better person that I. I don't think I could do it.
This.. I happen to find enjoyable.
And yes, I know this is longer than you're used to getting but hey. You put a lot of time and effort into this. Don't you think someone should put just a bit of that into actually saying something about it? Call it a me thing.
