Southwest Yard & Garden; Guessing pollination strategy based on flower power
Dr. Marisa Thompson Extension Horticulture
Question:
Is there an easy way to tell if a flower is wind-pollinated or insect-pollinated?
- Leah M., Albuquerque
Answer:
This question is a good one because the answer is beautiful. Big, fragrant, flamboyant flowers are a good indicator that an insect or other animal pollinates the plant.
