Nothing wrong with your grape hyacinth shot that a little unsharp mask wouldn't help - pics always need sharpening after resizing.
F22 will get you maximum depth of field but NOT maximum sharpness. All lenses have an aperture at which they are sharpest and this is usually around the middle of the range - f8 to f11. For example, if I use my Sigma 150mm macro at f11 the results are so sharp I could cut myself. But if I go to f22 for extra depth of field the results are still good but noticeably softer. Even f16 is visibly less sharp than f11. Experiment with wider apertures and see how you get on.
