After trying it this way once or twice then try the Murphy's Oil Soap. This is the reason I always prewash just incase this if the fabric bleed. Good luck.

Is the red stain from the silk flowers or from the fabric having gotten wet?
You could try putting dish detergent on the stain, and then flooding water through the area from the back. Let water run through that spot from back to front.
Are you able to replicate the stain on some scrap fabric and experiment on that?
