I actually selected the flowers in reverse, using the magic wand to
select the dark areas, then selecting the remaining bits with the lassoo
and square selection tools. Then I inverted the selection to select the
flowers.

Much harder for you to really bring up the background because the JPEG
is only 8 bit and I was working in 16. I went the long way around,
reconverting the RAW image, to push the limits of what detail could be
recovered. Trying Shadow adjustment now, I can bring up more in the 16
bit image that you could in 8 bit, but without the quality of color,
tone and detail I got from the reconversion. Of course, I'm looking at
full size 16 bit files too, it is less clear in the downsampled JPEGs.

Yes, and there is still so much more to learn. I think PS may be a
bottomless pit. :-)
