My absolute favourite flower, I fell in love with your painting straight away and was keen to try it - its a love/hate result for me when i quicky discovered your vibrancy was not going to happen with my shade of Sap Green (Winsor Newton Cotman).  But i persevered and ended with a small framed piece of work.  Thank you for your lesson - the method for the petals is something I will now use over and over!
