There are 3 big orange oranges on my dwarf Washington. Have been that way for, h, probably several months. Can oranges be "stored" on tree like lemons?

I'm afraid to wait too long, and afraid to pick too soon.

Any help appreciated.

I have known about the just leave it on the tree for lemons. For oranges
it may be variety/cultivar specific. From when i was growing up (Santa
Clara valley CA) the backyard dwarf navel orange would drop some fruit but
never could tell what the trigger was.
