I would have to agree that your greens don't really look green. Also, despite what was mentioned, Pink is not a secondary color. It's technically considered a "tint". A secondary color consists of a mixture of equal amounts of 2 primary colors. A tint (pink for example) is created by mixing white or black to a color. White and Red are mixed to get pink.
Anyway, I do see what looks to be a small section of orange in the middle of the pink, so that counts. :)
I don't think though, that the orange is enough to screem "This is a photo of secondary colors". And the green isn't really showing through.
I agree with the comment that this is a bit too centered. I wonder how this would look if the flowers were down in the bottom left corner, and there were some of the lake in the upper right. This could create a dramatic angle, and make it a bit more visually appealing.
Focus and clarity look to be good, but I think that the lighting makes it a bit difficult to tell exactly. The detail in the shot is definately muted some by the bright lighting.
I do think it's a pretty shot. It's a really nice scene. Nice flowers, nice reflection, but maybe just not right for the challenge.
