Looks like a crab spider, maybe a goldenrod crab spider? These guys are often found inside flowers, waiting for pollinators which they eat. Nice find!
Thanks for posting! I thought at first it was a crab spider but it seems a LOT bigger than ones I’ve seen outside, in flowers/plants?
Crab spiders vary a lot in size! I have a 3 month old spider that’s about 1mm, and giant crab spiders (also called huntsmans) are the largest spiders by diameter.
