    Yeah Use warm or hot water (depending on how much glue)to weaken the glue and pull gently, make sure the water doesn't get to the roots. The glue should weaken and you'll be able to remove the flower. Some of the spines will break but make sure you're trying to prevent as much damage as possible. The quicker you get it off the better, as they can cause infections and will suck moisture from the plant.

    Unfortunately, mine has a permanent bald spot, lol. I snipped it with scissors. However, she bloomed shortly after.
