Flower buds growing and swelling on callery pear tree cuttings?

i took 12 cuttings of a pretty callery flowering pear tree. An original not grafted tree.
This was back on January 10th.
I removed most of the flower buds the ones that i missed are starting to grow larger.

There appears to also be new flower buds/leaf buds that are growing out of the bark. Maybe this is in response to having the other ones removed.

Anyway, should i be worried about this?
will they still root okay anyway?

I know i can just pluck off the flower buds that are swelling but will the new buds that are growing out of the bark prevent the cuttings from rooting?

I have 5 cuttings covered in plastic that are sitting on the water heater to keep them warm and 6 are in a tupperware container that is sitting in a bedroom. Both pairs seem to be progessing the same. Another one is just sitting in the open in my kitchen.

Please advise....
