They're such cute, delicate spears!! EDIT:
Wow, I'm embarrassed. Just found out it is a philodendron.. I've just never seen one flower!!

actually I think I was looking at something else - a leaf stem maybe? the petal-like structures, I don't think are flowers either - my philodendron has a number of them, too - they wrap all the new growth, but mostly fall off pretty quickly.
they're not too different in structure from the flowers in that family group, but they seem to be missing the important anatomy.

It's Philodendron hederaceum/scandens. The pretty pinkish orange leaf sheaths are called cataphylls.
