Pics would help, but flowers are only modified leaves, so under certain odd conditions they sometimes revert or turn into a mix of flower structures and leaves, often referred to as vegetative apomixis.
This sort of thing is called false vivipary (I certainly hope I spelled that right), and is seen in many different carnivorous plant species, albeit rarely. As hcarlton said, since flowers are just modified leaves, it is easy to see how some hormonal imbalance could cause regular leaves to become flowers, or vice versa.
