It would be cool to see Pyrrha be mistaken, but it's unlikely. She's a great student, and can (likely) easily recognize things. And then there's the fact that RT wouldn't want to confuse us by having a character tell us something that's wrong... right? Ruby didn't say "Well, actually..." and I think she understands her own powers.

It's like someone telling Superman that his heat vision is not a natural Kryptonian-on-Earth thing, rather, minature laser guns in his eyes... and him not correcting them.

On the topic of the petals... it's likely just an aura thing. Weiss has snowflakes, Blake has black petals, and Yang has little fireballs. Cinders petals may link her to Ruby... but aren't really anything special in and of themselves.
