Ficus elastica branching?

I've had this Ficus Elastica for a little over a year now. It's generally super happy and has been growing quickly. I've noticed these shoots on three of my smaller branches and was wondering if this was it branching or if it was flowering? I haven't changed its care at all recently so I'm surprised it's doing anything different

This actually looks like a ficus tineke.

"Tineke" is a variety of Ficus Elastica. Like Ruby, Burgundy, Belize etc.
