Finally I think you have too much rose in the frame anyway and I think they dominate the fame, so I would suggest to step back a yard so you see more hills and so the roses dont steal the show... ie adjust the balance between the foreground. I did a quick check on my DOF tables and would guess you need to put about 3 to 4 meters between you and the rose, with similar settings to above. Tripod is OK because the close focus is good.
