I like the garlic.
The background is better in the second, but DOF isn't quite enough for the flower head so overall I prefer the first. Nice to see the comparison of the two apertures - was this with a tripod & same focus?
Cherry blossom looks too contrasty to me. It's a difficult subject that might actually look better in a dreamy soft focus...

What's the minimum focus distance on the DA35mm-Ltd HG?
I took a pretty similar shot as you're first yesterday (your's is considerably sharper mind...) with the Samsung-DFA-100...
