  You might want to play around with the Leave Color effect. If the color of the bouquet is not found anywhere else in the shot you might get an acceptable result. If it is, you could duplicate the layer and apply the HSV effect to the bottom layer. Then animate a junk matte around just the bouquet on the top layer. Apply leave color to the top layer and animate its value. Animate the value of the HSV effect on the bottom layer to be in tandem with Leave Color on the layer above. You might be able to connect the two effects via an expression.
  Hope that helps.
