Glued on flower!? Seriously?
yeez... first and last time I get cacti at that place!

edit: i checked and yep sure was glued on. I had no idea that was done..
I managed to remove them without damaging the cacti though

And thanks for the IDs!

The first one might be an Opuntia microdasys.
I'm sure you cacti would look much more beautiful and natural with those glued-on flowers removed.

lol, walmart made you get them. Even though the flowers are glued on, they're lucky you got them, and removed the flower. I'm sure they appreciate it. I saw some like that at Target the other day. I was tempted to pull all the flowers off.
