This is my heliamphora minor x heterodoxa it is growing some strange looking thing
My first thought was a flower
It looks like one main stalk that split, the smaller part of the split seems to be taking on more of a flower shape while the larger part of the split seems like it is a flower/pitcher combo?

This plant has never flowered for me so this is all new to me and maybe completely normal I don't really know

Congrats, that is a flower :) ! They sometimes start off looking like pitchers. Give it another month or so and you'll enjoy your very own heli flowers.

I am glad to hear that! Thanks!
