That explains the flatness. With HDR you want very overexposed and very underexposed so that you can have the full range of tonality. By using flash you eliminated the "underexposed". Try your same shot with a lamp (continuous lighting) behind the rose instead of a flash and shoot your 5 shots. That should give you a nice, rich result in HDR.

I'm thinking the original prime shots are way better than these...seems like maybe if there were more colors in the subject it (HDR) would work better maybe???
