Different varieties of citrus ripen at different times. For example, Navel oranges ripen in winter, Valencia oranges ripen in late spring/summer. Meyer lemons bear fruit pretty much any time, with flowers, unripe and ripe fruit on the tree at the same time. Ponderosa lemons can have fruit the size of grapefruits, and pomelos have fruit close to soccer ball size. So keep an eye on the tree and see what develops.
