Opuntia microdasys var. albispina

I was gifted this cactus this weekend and not sure what kind it is...Help me identify this plant please? #cactus-advice #cactus-id

@alovealoe. @lovestogarden @Muzz67. Can you #plantid

A lovely gift. The flowers look like the straw ones that are glued on. They come off with water if they are. This looks like #Opuntia microdasya "albata" @kimguy

@hannahchristine I agree, I see so much lack of experience towards plants in many hardwood stores I go to. 😠

@mardel yes and ive seen so many plants overwatered sitting in mud and dripping i had bought a plant one time and i had to let dirt dry out it started rotting on me
