Maybe so.  I have two in my yard here in Arizona that are roughly 50% larger than your picture and neither has flowered yet.  Your tree must be really happy!

 I remember someone told me that it will fertile but it will turn back to a regular queen. Guess we just have to waite and see.

Mine is throwing a spathe at that size too.  I don't see why they would revert - I doubt they are self-fertile so probably a back-cross with a queen would look more like a queen.
