I always have a hard time deciding where to crop when I shoot plants.
There's always something sticking into the frame to vex.  In the case  of
the
first picture though, I'd like to see the tips of the thorns on the right,
but more than that, I'm bothered by the brown stuff on the leaf tip. I
think #3 isn't cropped close enough.

But get this - despite what I wrote in a previous message, I like your #2
with white background!
