1. Change the Mode from RGB to Lab Color, choose the a channel to create an alpna channel (Fig 1)
2. Choose Curves to increase the contrast of the Alpha channel image (Fig 2)
3. Do some easy brushwork to isolate the red flowers (Fig 3)
You may now return to RGB mode and use the Alpha channel to make a selection or a mask

One thing more about using a channel to create the Selection or Mask. If you are not comfortable with Lab Color, make a duplicate ,image and change its mode to CMYK. Choose the Magenta channel to create the Alpha which will be copied to the RGB file and become the RGB Selection or Mask as described above. This is the Magenta channel without the Curve adjustment or the brushwork.
