Anything come to mind in regards to angles, lighting, etc that you would change to bring that out more? (i was hoping for more of the "flat lay" perspective)

I havent actually. Might be something worth trying with foliage/flowers/etc. Especially if i can tether it!
Oh, that's not so easy to answer, not being there it's hard for me to imagine exactly how you will find it the next time.
There are always options, if you read a bit about composition rules (to understand how they work and decide when or how to break them), you can use the light, colors, depth of field to separate your subject from the background. The point of view and the distance —even in little variations— can bring dramatic differences. Another way to learn is to check other photographers that have works similar to what you want to achieve, stare at their photographs many times and study their aesthetic.
I believe there are two ways of learning, studying and experimenting —best option might be to do both. If you want to experiment, visit the same subject at different times, different light, and make 3 photos each time, thinking it a lot before shooting, the more you think before shooting the better will be the results.
One of my teachers always said, "if you have doubts between a shot and another, take both!" You can always decide later which one is the best! haha Good luck out there!
