Tropicals & Tender Perennials: My first go at growing from seed. , 1 by 77sunset

I have a fruit on one of my epis. It has been there since Oct 2007 when I pollinated my 'Tangerine' with pollen from my 'Andromeda'.
The fruit has slowly turned a pinkish green now and feels quite soft.
I have never grown an epi from seed and want to try with this color combination.
The fruit is about 50cm long now and I would hate it to fall off and be ruined. . It is just starting to get into Autumn here now so if I do get the seeds, would I keep them until it is warmer around next October/ November here, or could I sow them and keep inside.
Any help appreciated, thank you. Jean.
