This is very likely to be Opuntia engelmannii subsp. lindheimeri which has flower colors ranging from yellow to red. A very intensely red type has been selected by Mark Dimmitt, which he dubbed Opuntia 'Fruit Punch'. I first saw it growing in a YouTube video. Arid Lands nursery is where I bought mine.

Thanks Tom. I did notice the color variation when I was at the Desert Botanical Garden last year. I use to have a couple small plants, but I am not sure if they are still around. Jkw
