I think steve has offered pretty much all the PS advice, I would just like to add though that it 'may' be possible to use the magic wand to select the background and then using the the 'select blackpoint' eyedropper tool, select the lightest tone. It should then ull the whole background back to black. It's aved my bacon a couple of times when my so called black backdrop has been somewhat grey.
One way to avoid this in future is to deliberately underexpose the shot, your cameras meter is set to aim everything to 18% grey and as such it can fool meteres sometimes.
Compositionaly (and remember this is all subjective now) I would probably have rotated the rose so the stem leads your eye into the icture from the bottom left, with the centre of the rose then sitting on an intersection between two lines of thirds.
HTH?
P.S. you don't have the 'edit' option ticked in your profile otherwise I'd have a fiddle and show you what I mean!
