Will Needle Palm Suckers Flower?

This is probably a very basic question, but I have a nice sized Needle palm with a larger center trunk and smaller suckers all around it. Will the suckers ever flower like the center trunk will? If if they do flower, can the suckers polinate the other suckers and trunks flowers and product viable seed? Thank you for reading.

The suckers are clones of the parent and will be the same sex so they wont pollinate the parent. They will flower but only when large enough.
