Today, I've seen an orchid , so I made this icon. If this gets approved, I'll make other colors ;)

make it more "light''

This icon, for a reference, could help you out with deciding how much and where to put shadows.

I agree with BlazeKraze.
You could add some more orchids / flora to give it some background, as it is too simple at the moment.

Nonetheless, it looks good! You have improved since your last flower icon!

It is hard to me to describe, I edited yours, I hope it is okay.

Similar to this, I would say. Of course, this is not freehand and not really good, but I think it fills the background in a good way.
Just a suggestion :)

You would have to pay attention to light and shadow as well as perspective and outlining of the front orchid. As you can see in my example, the front orchid is fading, that is something you should be careful of, if you choose this solution.
