Only because you asked, my first suggestions would be pay attention to your backgrounds and shoot with intent. Force the viewer to see only what you want them to see and eliminate, through camera angles, anything that does not add to the image. Welcome to the forum ! Keep posting.

Thanks Gary. I did realize that the background took away from some of these shots. That’s great advice

Welcome!
In addition to what Gary suggested, also give careful consideration to your compositions -- which of course would include backgrounds.
When I am photographing flowers with bee activity, I will often use a tripod and find an appealing composition with a flower and simply wait for a bee to come into the composition -- shooting at a high shutter speed. If the bees are active, you won't have to wait long.

thanks for posting your pictures. as greg mentioned, use a tripod or monopod to really steady the camera and lens; flowers are mostly stationary subjects which really benefit from using them. thanks for sharing. nice variety of beautiful flowers.
