Default 'Pink Velutina' producing fruit now, a first for me!

I started my plants ~18 months ago, and a flower popped up unexpectedly ~3 weeks ago. The picture shows the tiny pink bananas starting to form, as of yesterday.

How long does this species' fruit take to ripen from this point? Are ripening times similar for other species, such as dwarf cavendish, etc? I ask bc here in zone 6b, there are only 3 months of warm weather left now.

Thanks!
