Very interesting Lynn! You might see if any pollen is produced so you can use at least the pollen on other varieties. In one photo it looks as though you do have some good looking pollen, unlike 'Weirdo', which has cream, non-functioning pollen. Because the flowers aren't opening well it might be possible to just spread some pollen onto the stigmas without pulling the flowers apart or using any sort of cover.
GOOD LUCK!!
