That is fun! No, I've never had a palm bloom for me, but I once had my mother-in-law-tongue plant bloom. That was amazing to me! :)
I didn't even know they bloomed! That's amazing and so pretty!
Yes they do send blooms in a well cared for plant. Congratulations. http://homeguides.sfgate.com/root-parlor-palm-36242.html
Your palm is definitely happy with the way you treat him for it to flower. Keep it up and who knows what will happen! Look up the type of palm it is and see what it says about propagation with seeds and if they will grow.
You are doing something right! And yes, you can plant the seeds if you harvest them when the blooms fall, then give them a few weeks before you plant them. It may take several weeks for the seeds to germinate. Maybe months. But they grow very slowly. Depending on what type palm you have, it may have reached its maximum height. But if it starts to get larger and heavy, put it on some type of rolling stand if you will be moving it around. Congratulations on your secret green thumb! 😇

Sansiverious / AKA Mother-in-law's tongue will bloom when seriously stressed .. as in way WAY too dry, and then when pot-bound -- which they like... but there's a happy medium! They have a wonderful fragrance for such insignificant blooms!
