I’m fortunate enough to live in an area where flowers bloom year-round. It’s nice to be able to share with those who don’t.

Not really. I use Photoshop Express on my phone to separate the objects in a picture. That allows me to burn in the background. I then use the Topaz app to sharpen if needed. Back to the iPhone photo app to crop and adjust overall color, light, and remove a dead leaf if needed.
